MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Burke v. USF Reddaway, Inc., No. 2:12-cv-02641-KJM-GGH (E.D. Cal. 2013):

This factor weighs in favor of transfer, as "the deference given to plaintiff's choice of forum is slight, if any, when . . . the plaintiff's chosen forum lacks a significant connection to the events that gave rise to the complaint." Morris v. Safeco Ins. Co., No. C 07-2890 PJH, 2008 WL 5273719, at *4 (N.D. Cal. Dec. 19, 2008).
