MICHAEL ANTONIO SHEPHERD, Plaintiff, v. C. BUTLER, et al., Defendants.
ORDER OF TRANSFER
JAMES DONATO UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
This is a civil rights case brought pro se by a former state prisoner. Plaintiff presents allegations regarding an incident that occurred 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. Because defendants reside in the Central District and the incident occurred 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).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
