UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 10 CORKEY DENNIS OGLE, No. 2:20-cv-1108 CKD P Petitioner, v. ORDER UNKNOWN, Respondent. 16 Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, together with a request to proceed in forma pauperis. This court will not rule on petitioner’s request to proceed in forma pauperis. Petitioner was convicted in Butte County (ECF No. 4 at 1) and is incarcerated at R.J. Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego County, which lies in the Southern District of California, 28 U.S.C. § 84(d). Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2241(d), courts in both the district of conviction and the district of confinement have concurrent jurisdiction over applications for habeas corpus filed by state prisoners. However, as a general rule, “[t]he proper forum to challenge the execution of a sentence is the district where the prisoner is confined.” Dunne v. Henman, 875 F.2d 244,…
