United States District Court
Northern District of California

This is a federal civil rights action filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 by a pro se

14

state prisoner. Plaintiff Villasenor’s complaint was dismissed with leave to amend

15

because, among other reasons, his claims involved separate events at six California

16

prisons. He has since filed a first amended complaint. His revised allegations relate solely

17

to events that occurred at the California Men’s Colony in San Luis Obispo, which lies in

18

Central District of California. Accordingly, this federal civil rights action is hereby

19

TRANSFERRED to the Central District of California wherein venue properly lies because

20

a substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to the claims occurred, and the

21

defendants named reside, in the Central District. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 84(c), 1391(b), and

22

1406(a). The Clerk shall terminate all pending motions (Docket Nos. 49 and 50), and

23

transfer this action forthwith.
