ON PETITION FOR REHEARING
McQUADE, Justice.
Appellants petition for rehearing urges that I.R.C.P. 12(b) (3) is basis for a motion to dismiss an action for improper venue. This particular provision of the rule does not authorize dismissal of an action, but permits the exercise of a defense by motion. Form 15 of the Approved Forms does set forth language for dismissal of an action for improper venue, however, this form is neither a rule nor substantive law and confers no substantive right to a dismissal.
The petition for rehearing is denied.
SMITH, C. J., and TAYLOR, KNUDSON and McFADDEN, JJ., concur.
