UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO
EASTERN DIVISION
NICOLE A. LANGDON,
Plaintiff,
v.
BONNIE LAURIE, et al.,
Defendants.
Civil Action 2:26-cv-248
Judge Michael H. Watson
Magistrate Judge Chelsey M. Vascura
ORDER
Plaintiff, Nicole A. Langdon, a resident of Toledo, Ohio, who is proceeding without the
assistance of counsel, brings this action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for violation of her Fourteenth
Amendment rights. (Compl., ECF No. 1-1.)
Plaintiff’s Complaint advances claims arising in Toledo, Ohio. (See Compl. ¶ 6) (“[A]ll
events occurred in Toledo, Lucas County, Ohio.”) Accordingly, the bulk of the relevant
witnesses and evidence will be located in Lucas County, which is served by the Northern District
of Ohio. Venue in this Court is therefore not convenient for the parties or witnesses.
This action is therefore TRANSFERRED pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a) to the United
States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Western Division at Toledo, which serves
Lucas County. See N.D. Ohio Civ. R. 3.8(a).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
