IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

IVAN RAY CARTER 1:07-cv-1358-AWI-TAG (HC)

Petitioner, ORDER OF TRANSFER

vs.

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT

OF CORRECTIONS

 Respondent. 

 /

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

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

28 U.S.C. § 1915 and a motion to stay pending exhaustion of claims. (Docs. 1-3). 

Petitioner is challenging a conviction from Solano County, which is part of the 

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

(Doc. 1, p.1). 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. Accordingly, 

this action will be transferred to the Sacramento Division. This court will not rule on petitioner's

application to proceed in forma pauperis or his motion to stay pending exhaustion of claims.
