CIVIL ACTION NO. H-12-2608

ORDER
On March 26, 2013, a hearing was held on Joel Donald Mallory, Jr.’s motion for
reconsideration of this court’s order of dismissal. For the reasons stated on the record — including
that the case is properly filed, in the interests of justice, in the Eastern District of Texas, where
Mallory is in custody, where he was convicted, and where the events giving rise to the conviction
all occurred, and that the custodian has not been named as a defendant — Mallory’s motion for
reconsideration, (Docket Entry No. 11), is denied. This case remains dismissed without prejudice
to refiling in a proper venue against the proper defendant.
SIGNED on March 27, 2013, at Houston, Texas.
