UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

AARON STRIBLING, 

Petitioner, 

v. 

DAVID BAUGHMAN, 

 Respondent. 

Case No. 16-07176 EJD (PR) 

ORDER OF TRANSFER 

Petitioner, a state prisoner currently confined at California State Prison – 

Sacramento, filed a pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, 

challenging his state conviction.1 Venue for a habeas action is proper in either the district 

of confinement or the district of conviction, 28 U.S.C. § 2241(d). Here, Petitioner is 

challenging his conviction out of Sacramento County, (Pet. at 3), which lies within the 

venue of the Eastern District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 84(b). Therefore, venue 

properly lies in that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, 

this case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of 

California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a).

 The matter was reassigned to this Court on January 25, 2017, after Petitioner did not file 

notice of consent to magistrate jurisdiction. (Docket No. 5.)
