Case No. 1:19-cv-00393-JDP
ORDER TRANSFERRING CASE TO THE
SACRAMENTO DIVISION OF THE
EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CORRECTIONAL OFFICER JUAN, et
al.,
Defendants.
Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding without counsel, 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

19

violations took place in San Joaquin County, which is part of the Sacramento Division of the

20

United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. Therefore, the complaint

21

should have been filed in the Sacramento Division.

22

Pursuant to Local Rule 120(f), a civil action that has not been commenced in the proper

23

court may, on the court’s own motion, be transferred to the proper court. Therefore, I will

24

transfer this action to the Sacramento Division. I have already granted plaintiff’s request to

25

proceed in forma pauperis.
