V. WHITE, et al.,
11
United States District Court
Northern District of California
Case No. 21-cv-01070-SI
Defendants.
12
13
Plaintiff, an inmate at the Deuel Vocational Institution in Tracy, filed this pro se civil rights
14
action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, complaining of acts and omissions at that prison, which is located
15
in San Joaquin County, and at the California State Prison – Solano, which is located in Solano
16
County. Both of those counties are within the venue of the Eastern District of California. The
17
defendants work at those prisons and apparently reside 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
are alleged to have occurred in, the Northern District. Venue therefore would be proper in the
20
Eastern District, and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, in the interest of justice
21
and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), this action is TRANSFERRED to the United States District
22
Court for the Eastern District of California. The clerk shall transfer this matter.
