UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

PARNELL CURTIS, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

CALIFORNIA CORRECTIONAL 

INSTITUTION, TEHACHAPI, et al., 

Defendants. 

No. 2:14-cv-1044-EFB P 

ORDER 

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel in an action brought under 42 

U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff has filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 

U.S.C. § 1915. 

 Plaintiff alleges a violation of his civil rights at the California Correctional Institution, 

Tehachapi, which is in Kern County, California. Kern County is in the Fresno Division of the 

United States District Court for the Eastern District of California, and this action should have 

been commenced there. E.D. Cal. Local Rule 120(d). Where a civil action has not been 

commenced in the proper division of a court, the court may, on its own motion, transfer the action 

to the proper division. E.D. Cal. Local Rule 120(f).
