within the venue of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California, and

the defendants are located there as well. Venue, therefore, properly lies in that district and

not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b).

This case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern

District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a).
