Pro se plaintiff Timothy Morales, who currently is a prisoner in the Solano County Jail, filed this

18

action against defendants California Forensic Medical Group, the Solano County Jail Medical

19

Department, and Dr. Ravinder Kadervari. ECF No. 1. Mr. Morales alleges that Defendants violated

20

his civil rights in violation of 42 U.S.C. § 1983.
“A civil action arises in the county in which a substantial part of the events or omissions which

21
22

give rise to the claim occurred or in which a substantial part of the property that is the subject of the

23

action is situated.” Civ. L.R. 3-2(c). Here, all of the conduct giving rise to Morales’s claim took

24

place in Solano County. See ECF No. 1 at 3. Solano County is in the Eastern District of California,

25

so the action should have been filed there. Accordingly, the court ORDERS that this action be

26

TRANSFERRED to the Eastern District of California.
