TEXT ORDER entered by Judge Sue E. Myerscough on 10/18/2021. Venue for federal civil rights actions is governed by 28 U.S.C. 1391(b). According to that statute, such actions may be brought only in (1) the judicial district where any defendant resides (if all defendants reside in the same State), (2) a judicial district in which a substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to the claim occurred, or (3) a judicial district in which any defendant may be found, if there is no district in which the action may otherwise be brought. It appears that a substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to the claims in this lawsuit occurred in the U.S. Penitentiary in Thomson, Illinois, which is situated in the federal judicial district for the Northern District of Illinois. 28 U.S.C. 93. The court therefore finds that venue over this proceeding is in the Northern District of Illinois, and that it is in the interests of justice that this cause be transferred there. See 28 U.S.C. 1404(a). No summons shall issue in this action unless directed by the transferee court. The clerk is directed to transfer this case to the Northern District of Illinois.(SAG) [Transferred from Illinois Central on 10/19/2021.]

TEXT ORDER Entered by Judge Sue E. Myerscough on 9/28/2021. The clerk has received a letter from Plaintiff stating that Plaintiff intends to file a lawsuit about food poisoning he suffered during his incarceration in the U.S. penitentiary in Thomson, Illinois. This case has been opened, but whether Plaintiff intends to bring an action now is not clear because Plaintiff's letter requests forms. The clerk is directed to send Plaintiff the prisoner civil rights complaint form, petition to proceed in forma pauperis, and instructions for both. Plaintiff's complaint and petition to proceed in forma pauperis are due October 26, 2021, or this case will be dismissed without prejudice. Plaintiff is advised that the proper venue for his lawsuit is in the Northern District of Illinois since that is where the incidents occurred. If Plaintiff files the complaint and petition to proceed in forma pauperis in this case, the Court will transfer this case to the Northern District of Illinois.
