No. 2:15-cv-2102 AC P 

ORDER 

 Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of habeas 

corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, together with a request to proceed in forma pauperis. 

The application attacks a conviction issued by the San Luis Obispo County Superior 

Court. While both this court and the United States District Court in the district where petitioner 

was convicted have jurisdiction, any and all witnesses and evidence necessary for the resolution 

of petitioner’s application are more readily available in San Luis Obispo County. Braden v. 30th 

Judicial Circuit Court, 410 U.S. 484, 497, 499 n.15 (1973); 28 U.S.C. § 2241(d). 

 Accordingly, in the furtherance of justice, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
