IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ALEXANDER SERNA, 1:07-cv-01707 LJO TAG HC

Petitioner, ORDER OF TRANSFER 

vs.

JOHN MARSHALL, Warden,

Respondent.

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a habeas corpus action

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, together with a request to proceed in forma pauperis pursuant to

28 U.S.C. § 1915. 

The petitioner is challenging a conviction from Sacramento County, which is part of

the Sacramento Division of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California.

 Therefore, the petition should have been filed in the Sacramento Division. 

Pursuant to Local Rule 3-120(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 petitioner’ request to proceed

in forma pauperis. 

Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. This court has not ruled on petitioner’s request to proceed in forma pauperis.
