Plaintiff alleges various claims against employees of the Office of Appeals of the

14

California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, which is located in Sacramento,

15

which lies in the Eastern District of California. He asserts that the CDCR failed to

16

properly address the grievances he filed regarding events that occurred at the North Folk

17

Correctional Facility, which is in Western District of Oklahoma. This federal civil rights

18

action is hereby TRANSFERRED to the Eastern District of California, wherein venue

19

properly lies because a substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to the claims

20

occurred in that district. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 84(b), 1391(b), and 1406(a). Whether the

21

action should remain in the Eastern District of California or be transferred to the Western

22

District of Oklahoma is a decision for the receiving court. The Clerk shall transfer this

23

action forthwith.
