September 7, 2017 Opinion or Order Filing 24 ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS' MOTION TO TRANSFER granting #14 Motion to Transfer Case. 28 U.S.C. 1404(a) provides that "[f]or the convenience of parties and witnesses, in the interest of justice, a district court may transfer any civil action to any other district or division where it might have been brought or to any district or division to which all parties have consented." 28 U.S.C. 1404(a). "In deciding a 1404(a) motion to transfer, the first question a Court must ask is whether the case could have been brought in the proposed transferee district." Multiwave Sensor Inc. v. Sunsight Instruments, LLC, 2017 WL 1498058, at *6 (S.D.N.Y. Apr. 26, 2017). The answer to this question is yes. Venue is proper in a "judicial district in which any defendant resides, if all defendants are residents of the State in which the district is located." 28 U.S.C. 1391(b)(1). Venue is proper in the Northern District of California because all defendants resided there at the time this action was brought. For the aforementioned reasons, defendants' motion to transfer is granted. This action is hereby transferred to the Northern District of California. The Clerk of Court shall execute the transfer and close this docket, and as further set forth herein. (Signed by Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein on 9/7/2017) (ras)
