IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

WARREN H. FENTON,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-07-0265 FCD KJM P

vs.

A.P. KANE, 

Respondent. ORDER

 /

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

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. In his application, petitioner challenges the

execution of his sentence. He is confined in Monterey County which lies within the jurisdiction

of the United States District Court for the Central District of California. When a prisoner

challenges the execution of his sentence, the preferable venue is the court with jurisdiction over

the place where the prisoner is confined. See Dunne v. Henman, 875 F.2d 244, 249 (9th Cir.

1989).
