RODNEY JAMES MILLS, Plaintiff, v. JUDGE MICHAEL R. DEEMS, et al., Defendants.
ORDER OF TRANSFER
LAUREL BEELER UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
Rodney Mills filed this pro se civil rights action complaining about events and omissions occurring during his criminal trial in Butte County and within the venue of the Eastern District of California. The defendants are employed by Butte County and apparently reside in the Eastern District of California. Plaintiff is detained in the Eastern District of California. No defendant is alleged to reside in, and none of the events or omissions giving rise to the complaint occurred in, the Northern District of California. Venue therefore would be proper in the Eastern District of California and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, in the interest of justice and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), this action is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
