 Plaintiff, a civil committee under California’s Sexually Violent Predators Act, Cal. Welf.

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.
