EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS
WESTERN DIVISION
EVAN WARD KNOLL

vs.
PLAINTIFF
NO. 4:18CV00266 SWW
HORIZON BANK
DEFENDANT
ORDER
Plaintiff Evan Ward Knoll has submitted this case for filing in this district. However, from
the facts alleged and the Defendant named, it appears that venue property lies in the Western
District of Michigan. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, the Court finds that the interests of
justice would best be served by transferring this case to United States District Court for the Western
District of Michigan. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a) (“The district court of a district in which is filed a
case laying venue in the wrong division or district shall dismiss, or if it be in the interest of justice,
transfer such case to any district or division in which it could have been brought.”)
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED THAT the Clerk of the Court is directed to
IMMEDIATELY TRANSFER PLAINTIFF’S ENTIRE CASE FILE to the United States District
Court for the Western District of Michigan.
DATED this 10th day of May, 2018.
/s/Susan Webber Wright
