ORDER OF TRANSFER

(Dkt. Nos. 4, 5, 8, 9, 12)

Plaintiff, a California prisoner proceeding pro se, filed this civil rights complaint under

42 U.S.C. 1983, claiming that officials at Mule Creek State Prison and the Deuel Vocational

Institute violated his rights while he was incarcerated at those institutions. Both prisons are

located within the venue of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of

California. Venue for his claims are therefore proper in the Eastern District. See 28 U.S.C.

1391. Accordingly, and in the interests of justice, this case is TRANSFERRED to the United

States District Court for the Eastern District of California. See 28 U.S.C. 1404(a), 1406(a). 

Ruling on Plaintiff’s motions for leave to amend, to proceed in forma pauperis, for an extension

of time, and for appointment of counsel is deferred to the Eastern District. The clerk shall

terminate such motions from the docket in this court and shall transfer this case forthwith. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: August 11 , 2014.
