IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MANUEL DELGADILLO,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-07-0719 LKK KJM P

vs.

F. GONZALES, et al., 

Respondents. 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 the California Correctional Institution which lies

within the jurisdiction of the Fresno division of this court. 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). 

Pursuant to Local Rule 3-120(f), a civil action which has not been commenced in

the proper division of a court may, on the court’s own motion, be transferred to the proper

division of the court. Therefore, this action will be transferred to the Fresno Division of the

court.
