JERRY BROWN, et. al.,

United States District Court

Defendants.

Dkt. Nos. 2, 7

14

This is a civil rights case brought pro se by a detainee. Plaintiff alleges that his rights were

15

violated pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and the Americans with Disabilities Act. The allegations

16

concern events that occurred in San Bernardino County and Los Angeles County. These counties

17

lie within the venue of the United States District Court for the Central District of California.

18

Plaintiff is incarcerated in the Central District and most of the defendants reside in that district.

19

Venue, therefore, properly lies in that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). This

20

case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Central District of California.

21

See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). All pending motions (Docket Nos. 2, 7) are VACATED as MOOT.
