UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CLAUDE TIMOTHY STEVENSON, 

Plaintiff,

v.

CAROLYN W. COLVIN, 

Acting Commissioner of Social Security,

Defendant.

_____________________________________/

Case No. 1:14-cv-01939-SKO

ORDER TRANSFERRING CASE TO THE 

SACRAMENTO DIVISION OF THE 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff seeks judicial review of a final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security 

denying his application for Supplemental Security Income under Title XVI of the Social Security 

Act. Under the venue statute governing this action, Plaintiff may obtain review of any final 

decision of the Commissioner made after a hearing to which the plaintiff was a party by 

commencing a civil action in the federal district court for the judicial district in which the claimant 

resides. 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). 

Plaintiff's complaint reflects that he resides in Stockton, California, which is in San 

Joaquin County. (Doc. 1.) That county is part of the Sacramento Division of the Eastern District. 

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 Sacramento Division of the Court.
