UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

LAFONZO R. TURNER,

Plaintiff,

v.

SINGH, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:23-cv-0954 DB P

ORDER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner at Kern Valley State Prison, has filed a motion for preliminary 

injunction and temporary restraining order. (ECF No. 1.) No other pleadings have been filed by 

the plaintiff. Plaintiff’s filing indicates that the alleged rights violations took place at Kern Valley 

State Prison and he requests an order directing Kern Valley State Prison to provide plaintiff with 

previously authorized medical equipment such as his walker and knee braces. (ECF No. 1 at 1-2.) 

Kern Valley State Prison is located in Kern County, which is part of the Fresno Division of the 

United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. See Local Rule 120(d).

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

division of a court may, on the court’s own motion, be transferred to the proper division of the 

court. Therefore, this action will be transferred to the Fresno Division of the court.
