JAMES THERON CASE, Plaintiff, v. BOARD OF PRISON TERMS, et al., Defendants.
ORDER OF TRANSFER
(Docket No. 5)
Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, initiated the instant civil rights action by filing a letter requesting relief from prison conditions at the California State Prison - Solano ("CSP") in Vacaville, California, which lies within Solano County. Furthermore, Plaintiff later filed a complaint in which he challenges a recent denial of parole at CSP. (Docket No. 4.) Because the acts complained of occurred in Solano County, which lies within the venue of the Eastern District of California, venue properly lies in that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, this case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. See 28 U.S. C. § 1406(a). The Clerk shall terminate any pending motions and transfer the entire file to the Eastern District of California.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
