UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DERWIN BUTLER,

Plaintiff,

v.

M. OLIVEIRA, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 14-cv-04926-VC (PR) 

ORDER OF TRANSFER

Derwin Butler, a state prisoner currently incarcerated at Corcoran State Prison, has filed a 

civil rights action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaining of his treatment by Defendants, who are 

employees at Corcoran.

The acts complained of in this complaint occurred at Corcoran, which is located in Kings

County in the Eastern District of California. Venue, therefore, properly lies 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 of the Court shall terminate all motions and transfer the case forthwith. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated:
