IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KURT WASHINGTON,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-08-0614 FCD DAD P

vs.

JAMES YATES, 

Respondent. ORDER

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. In his application, petitioner challenges a prison

disciplinary charge issued against him at Pleasant Valley State Prison which resulted in the loss

of time credits. Pleasant Valley State Prison is located in Fresno County which is part of the

Fresno Division of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. See

Local Rule 3-120(d). 

Pursuant to Local Rule 3-120(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. Petitioner has not filed a request to proceed in forma pauperis or the appropriate filing fee.
