IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARIO NGWAZI WOOTEN,

Plaintiff, 

vs.

A. RIVERA VANG,

 Defendant.

 /

1:10-cv-00609-MJS (PC)

ORDER TRANSFERRING CASE TO THE

SACRAMENTO DIVISION OF THE EASTERN

DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant to 42

U.S.C. § 1983. Plaintiff has not paid the filing fee for this action or submitted an application to

proceed in forma pauperis under 28 U.S.C. 1915.

In his complaint, plaintiff alleges violations of his civil rights by defendants. The alleged

violations took place in San Joaquin County, which is part of the Sacramento Division of the United

States District Court for the Eastern District of California. Therefore, the complaint should have

been filed in the Sacramento Division. 

Pursuant to Local Rule 120(b), 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. Therefore, this action will

be transferred to the Sacramento Division.
