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.

Before the Court is Defendant Bristol-Myers Squibb Company’s (“BMS”) Motion to Transfer Venue to the District of New Jersey. (Dkt. No. 46.) The Court, having considered the venue motion and the arguments of counsel, GRANTS the motion to transfer venue for BMS to the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a). The balance of the private and public factors demonstrate s that the transferee venue is “clearly more convenient” than the venue chosen by Plaintiff Promote Innovation LLC (“Promote”).
