IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DAOUDA HILL,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-05-2142 DFL KJM P

vs.

MARGARITA PEREZ, et al.,

Respondents. ORDER

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of

habeas corpus under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 and has paid the filing fee.

Petitioner is presently incarcerated at correctional Training Facility in Soledad. 

He challenges the denial of parole. 

The general rule with regard to habeas applications is that both the United States

District Court in the district where petitioner was convicted and the District Court where

petitioner is incarcerated have jurisdiction over the claims. See Braden v. 30th Judicial Circuit

Court, 410 U.S. 484 (1973). In the instant case, petitioner’s conviction is not relevant to the

instant challenge and his place of incarceration occurred in an area covered by the District Court

for the Northern District of California.
