EARNEST S. HARRIS, Petitioner, v. WARDEN FOLSOM STATE PRISON, Respondent.


ORDER OF TRANSFER

JOSEPH C. SPERO Chief Magistrate Judge

In this federal habeas action petitioner, who is housed in the Eastern District at CSP-Sacramento, challenges the CDCR's denial of time credits he alleges he is owed under Proposition 57. This action is TRANSFERRED to the Eastern District of California because if a habeas petition involves parole or time credits claims, the district of confinement is the preferable forum. 28 U.S.C. §§ 1404(a), 2241(d); Habeas L.R 2254-3(b)(2); Dunne v. Henman, 875 F.2d 244, 249 (9th Cir. 1989). The Clerk shall transfer this action forthwith.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
