The Court also notes that at least one page of the complaint contains a caption for the United
States District Court for the District of New Jersey and the complaint appears to be based on
events that took place in New York, New Jersey, Virginia, Texas and Louisiana. Accordingly, it
is not clear that this Court is the appropriate venue for any claims arising out of these events.
