Date Filed Document Text
November 22, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 9 OPINION & ORDER entered by Judge Joe Billy McDade on 11/22/16. The Court finds that the Defendants have not carried their burden of persuading the Court that the interests of justice and the convenience of the parities and witnesses would be best served by dismissing the action. However, it is readily apparent that venue is lacking in this Court and it is in the interests of justice for this matter to be transferred to the Southern District of Illinois. Therefore, Defendant's Motion for DISMISS 5 is DENIED. Nevertheless, the Clerk is directed to TRANSFER this matter to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Illinois pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406. SEE FULL WRITTEN ORDER. (FDT, ilcd)
