June 29, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 28 ORDER by Judge Anna J. Brown. This matter comes before the Court on Defendants Motion [#9] to Dismiss for Lack of Personal Jurisdiction and Plaintiffs Alternative Motion [#21] in Response to Defendant's Motion to Dismiss in which Plaintiff requests the Court to transfer this matter to the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington. The record is sufficiently developed such that oral argument would not be helpful to resolve these Motions. For the reasons articulated by the Oregon Court of Appeals in the related state-court action, this Court also concludes it does not have personal jurisdiction over Defendant. Accordingly, the Court GRANTS Defendants Motion to Dismiss. Although such a dismissal would ordinarily be without prejudice for lack of personal jurisdiction over Defendant, the Court declines to enter a judgment of dismissal because, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1391(b) and 1631, the Court also concludes this Court is not the proper venue to resolve the remaining issue regarding the timeliness of Plaintiffs claim, which should be resolved by a court with personal jurisdiction, subject-matter jurisdiction, and proper venue. Accordingly, in the exercise of its discretion, the Court GRANTS Plaintiffs Alternative Motion to transfer and DIRECTS the Clerk to transfer this matter to the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington.
