UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

LEVI MICAH BARTER, 

Petitioner, 

v. 

JERRY BROWN, et al., 

Respondents. 

No. 2:13-cv-2636-EFB P 

ORDER 

Levi Micah Barter, a state prisoner without counsel, has filed a “writ of mandamus” and 

“T.R.O. Order,” requesting that his credits be restored and that he “immediately” be released 

from Kern Valley State Prison, where he is confined. The Clerk of the Court opened this action 

as a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. It appears from his initial 

filing and the exhibits attached thereto that he wishes to challenge the warden’s refusal to restore 

petitioner’s good time credits and set an early parole release date, as ordered by a Los Angeles 

County Superior Court. Therefore, this action should have been commenced in the district court 

in Fresno. E.D. Cal. Local Rule 120(d). 

 Accordingly, it is hereby ordered that: 

 1. This action is transferred to the district court in Fresno. See E.D. Cal. Local Rule 

120(f). 

 2. The Clerk of Court shall assign a new case number.
