Case No. 3:10-cv-00717-ECR-RAM

ORDER

On May 12, 2011, Defendants filed an Amended Motion to Dismiss (#23)

pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(3) on the grounds of improper venue. Plaintiff

concedes that venue is not proper in the District of Nevada but requests that

instead of dismissing the action that the Court transfer the case to the District of

Arizona. Defendants do not stipulate to transfer. It appears that the interests of

justice call for a transfer of the action to the District of Arizona rather than a

dismissal of the case. 

Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this action is transferred to the

District of Arizona. 

The Amended Motion to Dismiss (#23) filed May 12, 2011 is DENIED as

moot in light of the transfer of this case to the District of Arizona.
