Federal Court Motion To Transfer Denied

In the case of Bryne v. Terex USA, LLC, No. 2:25-CV-00586-GAM (E.D. Pa. McHugh, J. Oct. 28, 2025), the court denied a Motion by a Defendant to Transfer a case from the Eastern District to the Middle District, where the alleged accident occurred.

In so ruling, the court noted that, under 28 U.S.C. §1404(a), District Courts may transfer a case to another district where venue is proper “for the convenience of parties and witnesses or in the interests of justice.”

The court applied the various factors set forth in the case of Jumara v. State Farm Ins. Co., 55 F.3d 873, 879-80 (3d Cir. 1995) to support the denial of the Motion to Transfer.
