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 Finisar Corporation’s (“Finisar’s”) Motion to Transfer Venue (Dkt. No. 11). Finisar contends that the Northern District of California ( “NDCA”) is a more convenient forum than the Eastern District of Texas ( “EDTX”). The Court, having considered the motion and related briefing, DENIES Finisar’s motion because Finisar has failed to demonstrate that the transferee venue is clearly more convenient than the EDTX. II.
