IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARCELINO CALDERON-SILVA,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-06-0066 DFL DAD P

vs.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA, et al.,

Respondents. ORDER

 /

Petitioner, a California state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a petition for

writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, together with an application to proceed in

forma pauperis.

Petitioner challenges both a recent parole denial and his judgment of conviction

entered in the Orange County Superior Court in 1992. Petitioner seeks his immediate release

from prison or, in the alternative, a new trial at which the government is required to produce

evidence that was allegedly withheld during his trial. Petitioner is incarcerated at Chuckawalla

Valley State Prison, which is located in Riverside County. Riverside County and Orange County

are among the counties located in the judicial district known as the Central District of California. 

See 28 U.S.C. § 84(c).

Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241(d), courts in both the district of conviction and the

district of confinement have concurrent jurisdiction over applications for habeas corpus filed by

state prisoners. Because petitioner was not convicted in the Eastern District of California and is

not presently confined in the Eastern District, this action will be transferred to the United States

District Court for the Central District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 2241(d); 28 U.S.C.

§ 1406(a).

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this matter is transferred to the

United States District Court for the Central District of California.

DATED: January 23, 2006.
