United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ANGEL ORTIZ DIAMOND,

Plaintiff,

v.

CITY OF LOS ANGELES, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-03153-JD 

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND 

RECOMMENDATION AND 

TRANSFERRING CASE 

Re: Dkt. No. 10

The court has reviewed Magistrate Judge Elizabeth D. Laporte’s Report and 

Recommendation advising that this action be transferred to the Central District of California. Dkt. 

No 10 at 2. The Magistrate Judge found that this case involves the same facts as, and relates to,

Diamond v. City of Los Angeles, Case No. 14-cv-3825, currently pending in the Central District of 

California. Id. at 1. The time to file objections to the Report and Recommendation has passed and 

plaintiff has not objected. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). Magistrate Judge 

Laporte’s Report is well-reasoned, and the Court adopts it in its entirety. 

For the reasons stated in Magistrate Judge Laporte’s Report, transfer to the Central District 

of California, where the case could have been brought, will serve the convenience of the parties 

and witnesses and is in the interests of justice. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a), the Court 

transfers this action to the Central District of California. The Clerk will close the case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: September 2, 2015
