NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOSEPH DONALD RAY,

Plaintiff,

 v.

SATF-SP CORCORAN II MEDICAL

DEPARTMENT,

Defendant. /

No. C 07-2433 PJH (PR)

ORDER OF TRANSFER

This is a civil rights case brought pro se by a state prisoner. The acts complained of

occurred at the Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and State Prison, Corcoran, which lies

within the venue of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. 

And to whatever extent the defendant medical department might be said to reside

anywhere, that would be in the Eastern District as well. Venue, therefore, properly lies in

that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b).

This case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern

District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). In view of the transfer, the court will not

rule upon plaintiff's request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 15 , 2007.
