Plaintiff has filed a pro se civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. He has not paid
16
the filing fee or filed a motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis ("IFP"). Even though he has
17
not filed an IFP application, he submitted his Certificate of Funds and prison trust account statement.
18
The acts complained of occurred at the R. J. Donovan Correctional Facility, which is located
19
in the Southern District of California, and it appears that Defendant resides in that district. Venue,
20
therefore, properly lies in that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b).
21
Accordingly, in the interest of justice and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), this action is
22
TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. The
23
Clerk of the Court shall transfer the case forthwith.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
