From the Opinion

The passage below is extracted verbatim from the opening of the document. It has not been editorially summarized — consult the full opinion for the court's complete reasoning.

I. Introduction Pending before the court is the defendants Google, Inc.’s (“Google”), Yahoo! Inc.’s (“Yahoo”), IAC Search & Media, Inc.’s (“IA C”), AOL, LLC’s (“AOL”), and Lycos, Inc.’s (“Lycos”) motion to transfer venue (Dkt. No. 130). The defendants contend that the Northern District of California is a more convenient forum than the Eastern District of Texas and seek to transfer venue pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a).
