UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

 Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 

§ 1983, together with a request to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915. 

In his complaint, Plaintiff alleges violations of his civil rights by defendants. The alleged 

violations took place in Sacramento County, which is part of the Sacramento Division of the United 

States District Court for the Eastern District of California. Therefore, the complaint should have been 

filed in the Sacramento Division. 

Pursuant to Local Rule 120(f), a civil action which has not been commenced in the proper 

court may, on the court’s own motion, be transferred to the proper court. Therefore, this action will be 

transferred to the Sacramento Division. This court will not rule on plaintiff's request to proceed in 

forma pauperis.
