ORDER TRANSFERRING 1

ACTION

1651. It does not appear from the complaint that any of the defendants resides in the Northern

District of California or that any part of the events giving rise to the claims occurred in this

district; instead, all of the events are alleged to have occurred in the Eastern District of

California. Accordingly, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b) and 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), the Court on
