IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

VICTOR CARRASCO,

Plaintiff, No. 2:10-cv-2991 JFM (PC)

vs.

FISHER,

Defendant. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant

to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, together with a request to proceed in forma pauperis. In his complaint,

plaintiff alleges violations of his civil rights by the defendant. The alleged violations took place

in Kings 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. In light of 1996 amendments to 28 U.S.C. § 1915, this court will not rule on plaintiff’s

request to proceed in forma pauperis.
