Defendants.

Ronald Lee Canada, an inmate at the California Men’s Colony, filed this pro se civil rights

15

action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, complaining about events and omissions at the California Medical

16

Facility (“CMF”), where he was previously incarcerated. CMF is located in Solano County,

17

within the venue of the Eastern District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 84(b). No defendant is

18

alleged to reside in, and none of the events or omissions giving rise to the complaint occurred in,

19

the Northern District. Venue therefore is proper in the Eastern District, and not in this one. See

20

28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, in the interests of justice and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a),

21

this action is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of

22

California. The Clerk shall transfer this matter.
