NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

WAYNE GOLDEN, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

PETE WILSON, et al., 

 Defendants. 

Case No. 16-01516 EJD (PR) 

ORDER OF TRANSER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner at the California Medical Facility (“CMF”) in Vacaville, 

has filed a pro se complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, against state officials whose 

offices are located in Sacramento. Because defendants reside in Sacramento County, and 

the acts complained of occurred in Solano County, both of which lie within the venue of 

the Eastern District of California, see 28 U.S.C. § 84(b), venue properly lies in that district 

and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, this case is TRANSFERRED 

to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 

1406(a). 

The Clerk shall terminate all pending motions and transfer the entire file to the 

Eastern District of California. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
