UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

RONALD LEE CANADA,

Plaintiff,

v.

J. LEWIS,

Defendant.

Case No. 17-cv-00529-JST (PR)

ORDER OF TRANSFER

Plaintiff has filed a pro se civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 complaining of 

events at California State Prison–Sacramento (“CSP-SAC”). CSP-SAC is located in Sacramento 

County within the venue of the Eastern District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 84(b). No 

defendant is alleged to reside in, and none of the events or omissions giving rise to the action 

occurred in, the Northern District. Venue therefore is proper in the Eastern District, and not in this 

one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). 

Accordingly, in the interests of justice and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), this action is 

TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. The 

Clerk of the Court is directed to transfer the case forthwith. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: February 10, 2017
