Message: [QUOTE="Crusty, post: 505257, member: 2265"] Some of the attorneys should chime in. Mine always tell me to file suit first to establish venue if you have solid nexus and then have the other guy try to get the venue changed, which can be very difficult. Since the case the ACC filed in NC is a request for a declaratory judgment under NC law it would probably be near impossible for MD to get a NC judge to grant it a change in venue. What are the grounds? MD agreed to NC law and venue when it accepted the ACC by-laws. That is why they sued on other grounds in MD. Even if they managed to get the case moved to US Court they would still be in NC using NC law. I would have thought that if they had any chance to have it moved to US Court it would have been done by now. [/QUOTE]
