ORDER
PLAINTIFF
DEFENDANTS
Womack submitted this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 case for filing in this
district. 	From the facts that she alleged and the defendants that she
named, venue properly lies in the District Court for the Western District
of Arkansas. 	28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). 	The Court finds that the interests of
justice 	would 	be 	best 	served 	by 	transferring 	this 	case. 	28 	U.S.C.
§ 1406(a). 	The Court directs the Clerk to transfer the entire case file to
the United States District Court for the Western District of Arkansas.
The transfer is immediate because the receiving Court is also in the
Eighth Circuit. 	Compare In re Nine Mile Limited, 673 F.2d 242, 243 (8th
Cir. 1982).
