UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ERNEST MILLER, JR.,

Plaintiff,

v.

CDC SECRETARY McGRATH; et al.,

Defendants. /

No. C 08-009 SI (pr)

ORDER OF TRANSFER

Ernest Miller, Jr., filed this civil rights action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, complaining of acts

and omissions that occurred at the High Desert State Prison in Susanville, California. Susanville

is in Lassen County, within the venue of the Eastern District of California. The defendants, all

of whom allegedly are employed at the prison or at the California Department of Corrections &

Rehabilitation headquarters in Sacramento County, also apparently reside in the Eastern District

of California. Venue therefore properly lies in that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C.

§ 1391(b). Accordingly, in the interest of justice and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), this action

is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California.

The clerk shall transfer this matter.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
