No. C 15-04200 EJD (PR)

ORDER OF TRANSFER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed the instant “Suit in Equity” under

the California and Federal Declaratory Acts. (Docket No. 1.) Plaintiff seeks declaratory

judgment against the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, for

allegedly depriving Plaintiff of due process in deciding Plaintiff’s request for specialized

medical care. (Id. at 2.) Because Plaintiff is currently incarcerated in Solano State Prison

and the acts complained of occurred in Solano County, which lies within the venue of the

Eastern District of California, venue properly lies in that district and not in this one. See

28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, this case is TRANSFERRED to the United States

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

The Clerk shall terminate all pending motions and transfer the entire file to the

Eastern District of California.
