Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed a civil rights action pursuant to 42
U.S.C. ' 1983.
In his complaint, plaintiff alleges violations of his civil rights by defendants. The alleged
violations took place in San Joaquin County, which is part of the Sacramento Division of the
United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. Therefore, the complaint should
have been filed in the Sacramento Division.

Pursuant to Local Rule 120(f), a civil action which has not been commenced in the proper
24
court may, on the court’s own motion, be transferred to the proper court. Therefore, this action
25
will be transferred to the Sacramento Division. This court will not rule on plaintiff's request to
26

proceed in forma pauperis.
Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
