28 U.S.C. § 1404(a) provides: “For 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.” 

In light of the pending action styled Hyphy Music, Inc. v. Sena, et al., Case No.

Eastern District of California on February 19, 2021, before the filing of the instant 

action, the court ORDERS the parties to Show Cause (“OSC”) in writing by March 

17, 2023: (1) why venue in this district is proper pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1391, (2) 

whether this action is related to Hyphy Music, Inc. v. Sena, et al., Case No. 1:21-cv00216-JLT-HBK; (3) why the instant action should not be transferred to the Eastern 

District of California pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a); and (4) whether there are 

additional necessary parties that must be joined in this action pursuant to Federal Rule 

of Civil Procedure 19. 

The OSC is set for hearing on March 31, 2023, at 1:30 p.m. Plaintiff’s Motion 

for Preliminary Injunction, Dkt. 21, is continued to March 31, 2023, at 1:30 p.m. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
