What is the name of your state? California
I filed a small claims case against a corporation. I am a business owner also. The business is incorporated in Indiana but also has a facility in California. I filed the court case in the county where I my business resides. They are located in another county. They have filed for change of venue saying they operate in Alameda County so that is the proper court. I have to appear before the judge and try to get him to keep the venue where my business is located. My justification for this is.
1) I met them at a trade show in Long beach after that they solicited my business, therefore The contract was signed in my place of business Laguna Hills. They drop shipped furniture for my business across the county so they operate not only in Indiana and Alameda county, California but all across the US. So how should I explain this to a judge? They reason I am bringing them to court is because they shipped incomplete items rendered unusable by my customers. For example a bunk bed with no ladder. Therefore you cannot use the top bed. Thank you very much,
