December 13, 2019 Opinion or Order MINUTE ORDER. Presently pending before this Court are two related cases: CEF Energia, B.V. v. Italian Republic, 19cv3443, and Greentech Energy Systems A/S v.

Accordingly, the Court is hereby providing notice that these two cases will be consolidated on 1/6/2020, unless the parties object. Any objection shall be filed on the docket on or before 1/3/2020. Signed by Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson on 12/13/2019. (jag)

November 8, 2019 Opinion or Order Filing 23 ORDER deferring ruling on #8 Letter Motion to Stay; granting #8 Motion to Transfer Case. This is a civil action against a foreign state, in which no party is a citizen or resident of the United States and no event or omission giving rise to the claim or any other aspect of the claim has any connection to New York, and the selection of its proper venue as the United States District Court for the District of Columbia provided by 28 U.S.C. 1391(f) (4) ("Civil actions against a foreign state") prevails. The fact that the case was required to be removed to this Court from the Supreme Court, New York County means no more than that this Court is the proper one to determine the issue of its venue. Accordingly, (1) The Clerk shall forthwith transfer this action to the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, and (2) The application for a stay is respectfully referred to that Court.
