UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JAMIE ASUNA,

Plaintiff,

v.

EDMOND G. BROWN, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 19-cv-00913-SI 

ORDER OF TRANSFER

Jamie Asuna filed this civil rights action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, complaining of events or 

omissions that occurred at the California State Prison – Corcoran in Kings County, California. The 

defendants work in Kings County at that prison and in Sacramento County at the California 

Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation headquarters, and apparently reside in one of those 

counties. Both Kings County and Sacramento County are located within the venue of the Eastern

District of California. No defendant is alleged to reside in, and none of the events or omissions 

giving rise to the complaint occurred in, the Northern District. Venue therefore would be proper in 

the Eastern 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.

Dated: April 29, 2019
