April 13, 2012	Filing 6 MEMORANDUM AND ORDER DISMISSING CASE: This Court has no jurisdiction to grant Mr. Palmer the relief he seeks. If Mr. Palmer believes that correctional officials are violating his right of access to the courts or providing inadequate c onditions of confinement or infringing any other constitutional right, he may pursue these claims by filing a prisoner civil rights complaint and by either paying the filing fee or submitting a request to proceed in forma pauperis. Mr . Palmer is incarcerated at Attica Correctional Facility, and the conditions he complains of occurred in this facility. Attica is located in Wyoming County, which itself is located within the venue of the United States District Court for the Western District of New York. Accordingly, Mr. Palmer may pursue his claims in that Court. As this Court cannot act on letters, and as it appears to have no jurisdiction over Mr. Palmer's claims, his claims are dismissed without prej udice to filing a complaint in the appropriate court. 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. SO ORDERED by Chief Judge Carol Bagley Amon, on 4/13/2012. C/mailed. (Latka-Mucha, Wieslawa)
