ORDER OF TRANSFER
15
16
Petitioner, proceeding pro se, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28
17
U.S.C. § 2254. Petitioner seeks habeas relief from his underlying criminal sentence from the
18
Superior Court of Riverside County, which lies in the Central District of California. Venue for a
19
habeas action is proper in either the district of confinement or the district of conviction, 28
20
U.S.C. § 2241(d); however, petitions challenging a conviction or sentence are preferably heard
21
in the district of conviction. See Habeas L.R. 2254-3(a); Laue v. Nelson, 279 F. Supp. 265, 266
22
(N.D. Cal. 1968). Here, the Central District of California is the district of conviction.
23
Accordingly, this case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Central
24
District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a). The Clerk shall transfer the entire file to the
25
Central District of California.
26
IT IS SO ORDERED.
