ORDER DISMISSING ORIGINAL COMPLAINT AND DENYING WITHOUT PREJUDICE
DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO DISMISS PURSUANT TO RULE 12(B)(1) [#10]AND
CANCELLING AUGUST 20, 2013 HEARING
On April 30, 2013, Plaintiff filed the instant action seeking to compel arbitration to proceed
in Michigan rather than Georgia, where Defendants filed an arbitration demand against Plaintiff.
On June 7, 2013, Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss arguing that this Court lacks subject matter
jurisdiction over Plaintiff’s Complaint because the issue of venue is for the American Arbitration
Association to decide and not this Court. Thereafter, Plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint.
Accordingly, the Court dismisses the original complaint from this action. Defendants’
Motion to Dismiss Pursuant to Rule 12(b)(1) [#10] is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
SO ORDERED.
