The county in which the facts are alleged to have occurred and in which the trial will be held. Venue is the legally proper place where a particular case should be filed or handled.
Every state has rules determining the proper venue for different types of lawsuits.
The state, county or district in which a lawsuit is filed or a hearing or trial in that action is conducted is called the forum. The venue is the county from which the jury are to come, who are to try the issue. As it is a general rule, that the place of every traversable fact stated in the pleadings must be distinctly alleged, or at least that some certain place must be alleged for every such fact, it follows that a venue must be stated in every declaration.
