16 17 Petitioner Timothy Doyle Young, a federal prisoner convicted in Oregon and 18 housed in Colorado, asks for federal habeas relief. This action is TRANSFERRED to the 19 District of Oregon as that is the district of conviction. 28 U.S.C. §§ 1404(a), 2241(d); 20 Habeas L.R. 2254-3(b). 21 The Court notes the following. “Mr. Young has filed over 60 separate federal court 22 cases across the country, in the United States Courts of Appeals for the Second, Ninth, 23 Tenth and District of Columbia Circuits, the United States District Courts for the Northern 24 District of California, the Central District of California, the District of Colorado, the 25 District of Columbia District Court, the Northern District of Illinois and the Eastern 26 District of New York.” Young v. United States, 88 Fed. Cl. 283, 290 (2009). By such 27 excessive filings, “Mr. Young has made himself an example of the type of plaintiff 1 |] U.S.C. § 1915.” Td. at 291. 2 The Court will quote from a judicial decision regarding a 2008 federal case Young 3 || filed here in the Northern District that was transferred to Colorado: 4 Plaintiff also maliciously and purposely has filed actions in other federal 5 courts knowing, as demonstrated in the cited cases below, that venue is not proper and that the actions more properly are filed in this Court.

His filings, the Colorado court found, were “abusive.”

The United States Supreme Court in rejecting a petition from Young stated, “[a]s

5 18 petitioner has repeatedly abused this Court’s process, the Clerk is directed not to accept 19 any further petitions in noncriminal matters from petitioner unless the docketing fee

50 required by Rule 38(a) is paid and petition submitted in compliance with Rule 33.1.”
