Plaintiff,
ORDER OF TRANSFER
v.
JESSE HERNANDEZ,
Defendant.
/

14
Anthony E. Roberts, Jr., filed this civil rights action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, complaining
15
of events or omissions that occurred at Mule Creek State Prison in Ione, California. Ione is in
16
Amador County, and within the venue of the Central District of California. Defendant, who
17
works at Mule Creek State Prison, apparently resides in the Eastern District of California. No
18
defendant is alleged to reside in, and none of the events or omissions giving rise to the complaint
19
occurred in, the Northern District. Venue therefore would be proper in the Eastern District and
20
not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, in the interest of justice and pursuant to
21
28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), this action is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the
22
Eastern District of California. The clerk shall transfer this matter.
