FLORIDA/GEORGIA
My business is a registered Florida corporation however I have commercial rental property in another state in the 11th circuit. For sake of argument, lets say Georgia(for example). The company who I am considering a lawsuit against also has a branch office location in Florida if that matters however the wrongdoing took place in Georiga on a commercial rental property.
Both Florida and Georgia are in the same 11th circuit.
If my lawsuit was against company owned by a well connected and powerful family which include both governor and senators of the state of Georgia(who also had many powerful business ties and connections in the state) could this be a justification to have it moved to Florida instead of their home state of Georgia?
The amount is over $75,000 and it involves citizens of different states.
How could I get the venue out of the state of Georgia assuming there is a way?
Do I have options here?
Thanks.
