NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

EUREKA DIVISION

ANTHONY W. HIGGINBOTHAM,

Plaintiff,

 v.

WARDEN BRIAN DUFFY,

Defendant. /

No. C 14-2937 NJV (PR)

ORDER OF TRANSFER

This is a civil rights case brought pro se by a state prisoner. Plaintiff alleges that he

has been improperly classified at California Medical Facility which has interfered with his

housing and custody status. The sole defendant in this case is the warden of California

Medical Facility and that institution lies within the venue of the Eastern District of California. 

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

This case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern

District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). In view of the transfer, the court will not

rule upon plaintiff's request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: July 17, 2014.
