2016-06-23 4 0 TRANSFER ORDER: Plaintiff, currently a resident of Samaritan Village Facility, brings this pro se action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, alleging that Defendants violated his rights during an arrest in Nassau County and subsequent criminal proceedings. Plaintiff's claims arose in Nassau County, which is in the Eastern District of New York. See 28 U.S.C. § 112. Accordingly, venue lies in the Eastern District of New York, 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b)(2), and this action is transferred to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). The Clerk of Court is directed to assign this matter to my docket, mail a copy of this order to Plaintiff, and note service on the docket. The Clerk of Court is further directed to transfer this action to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. Whether Plaintiff should be permitted to proceed further without payment of fees is a determination to be made by the transferee court. A summons shall not issue from this Court. This order closes this case. The Court certifies, pursuant to 28 U.S.C § 1915(a)(3), that any appeal from this order would not be taken in good faith, and therefore in forma pauperis status is denied for the purpose of an appeal. See Coppedge v. United States, 369 U.S. 438, 444-45 (1962). (Signed by Judge Colleen McMahon on 6/23/2016) (sac) [Transferred from New York Southern on 7/7/2016.] (Entered: 06/27/2016)
