v. 	Case No: 2:24-cv-00040 JM-PSH
WELLPATH LLC, et al. 	DEFENDANTS
ORDER
Plaintiff has submitted this case for filing in this district. However, from the facts alleged
and the Defendants described, it appears that venue properly lies in the Western District of
Arkansas. See 28 U.S.C. §1391(b). Accordingly, the Court finds that the interests of justice would
best be served by transferring this case to the United States District Court for the Western District
of Arkansas. 	See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a) (“The district court of a district in which is filed a case
laying venue in the wrong division or district shall dismiss, or if it be in the interest of justice,
transfer such case to any district or division in which it could have been brought.”).
IT 	IS 	THEREFORE 	ORDERED 	THAT 	the 	Clerk 	of 	the 	Court 	is 	directed 	to
IMMEDIATELY TRANSFER PLAINTIFF’S ENTIRE CASE FILE to the United States District
Court for the Western District of Arkansas.
DATED this 1st day of March, 2024.
