Southern District Venue Rules

Summary

The 2nd Circuit Court often cites Supreme Court cases like Leroy v. Great Western United Corp., 443 U.S. 173, 180 (1979) and United States v. National City Lines, Inc., 337 U.S. 78, 81 (1949) for venue rules in the Southern District of New York. United States v. National City Lines, 334 U.S. 573 (1948), establishes that venue is proper where the illegal action took place and where the illegal act had an effect. Forum non conveniens allows courts to dismiss a case if another forum is better suited to hear it, based on the location of parties, witnesses, or evidence. For specific advice, consult a legal professional.

Explain forum non conveniens
