TERRELL CORDARRYL STANFORD, Plaintiff, v. B. PEREZ, et al., Defendants.
ORDER OF TRANSFER RE: DKT. NOS. 2, 6
JAMES DONATO UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
This is a civil rights case brought pro se by a state prisoner. Plaintiff presents allegations regarding prison conditions at California State Prison Los Angeles County. This prison is located within the venue of the United States District Court for the Central District of California. Plaintiff is incarcerated in the Eastern District of California. Because the events for this case and defendants are located in the Central District, venue properly lies in that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b).
This case is transferred to the United States District Court for the Central District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). In view of the transfer, the Court will not rule upon plaintiff's motions to proceed in forma pauperis (Dkt. Nos. 2, 6) which are vacated.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
