IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

WESTERN DIVISION

BENE BREEZE TILLOSON,

ADC #653832 PLAINTIFF

V. NO: 4:16-CV-482-JM-BD

CHARLES LIGGETT, Doctor, ORCU, ADC DEFENDANT

ORDER

Plaintiff Bene Breeze Tilloson has submitted this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 case for filing in this

district. However, from the facts alleged and the Defendant named, it appears that venue

properly lies in the Western District of Arkansas. 28 U.S.C. §1391(b). Accordingly, the Court

finds that the interests of justice would best be served by transferring this case to the United

States District Court for the Western District of Arkansas. 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a).1

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED THAT the Clerk of the Court is directed to

IMMEDIATELY TRANSFER MR. TILLOSON’S ENTIRE CASE FILE to the United States

District Court for the Western District of Arkansas. 

DATED this 26th day of July, 2016
