14 This is a civil rights case brought pro se by a state prisoner. The acts complained of
15 occurred where plaintiff was tried, in Solano County, which lies within the venue of the
16 United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. Defendants are county or
17 state agencies, all in Solano County, and the one individual defendant named is plaintiff’s
18 public defender, who presumably resides there as well. Venue, therefore, properly lies in
19 that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b).
20 This case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern
21 District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). In view of the transfer, the court will not
22 rule upon plaintiff's request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis.
23 IT IS SO ORDERED.
