ORDER

CHARLENE EDWARDS HONEYWELL, District Judge.

This matter comes before the Court upon the Plaintiff's Motion for Change of Venue to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana; or in the Alternative, Dismissal Without Prejudice to Refile in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana (the "Motion") (Doc. 58), filed on October 2, 2017. Defendant Experian Information Solutions, Inc. filed a response (Doc. 59), to which Plaintiff replied with his First Supplement to the Motion (Doc. 60).

Plaintiff asserts that he is a military service member on active duty and subject to the control of military command and authority. Doc. 58 at 1. He received orders to relocate to the State of Louisiana. Id. Experian Information Solutions, Inc. does not oppose the transfer, but merely requests a specific date for the relocation to determine whether the Motion is premature. Doc. 59 at 2. In his reply, Plaintiff clarifies that he received a relocation date of November 17, 2017, and he expects to take permanent residency in the State of Louisiana as of November 21, 2017. Doc. 60 at 1.

A district court may transfer any civil action to any other district or division where it might have been brought "[f]or the convenience of the parties and witnesses, in the interest of justice." 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a). A court must consider two factors to determine whether transferring venue is appropriate: 1) whether the action might have been brought in the venue to which transfer is sought; and 2) whether various factors are satisfied so as to determine if transfer to a more convenient forum is justified. Thermal Techs., Inc. v. Dade Serv. Corp., 282 F.Supp.2d 1373, 1376 (S.D. Fla. 2003). Under Section 1404(a), a district court has the discretion to grant or deny a motion to transfer. See In re Ricoh Corp., 870 F.2d 570, 573 n. 5 (11th Cir. 1989). Such motions are analyzed according to an "individualized, case-by-case consideration of convenience and fairness." Stewart Organization, Inc. v. Ricoh Corp., 487 U.S. 22, 29 (1988) (quotation marks and citation omitted).

Factors the court considers in determining the propriety of transfer include:

Manuel v. Convergys Corp., 430 F.3d 1132, 1135 n. 1 (11th Cir. 2005). The burden is on the movant to establish that the suggested forum is more convenient. See Ricoh, 870 F.2d at 573. Further, the Court must give considerable weight to the plaintiff's choice of forum, and will not disturb it unless it is "clearly outweighed" by considerations of convenience, cost, judicial economy and expeditious discovery and trial process. See Robinson v. Giarmarco & Bill, P.C., 74 F.3d 253, 260 (11th Cir. 1996).

The Court is persuaded that this case should be transferred to the Western District of Louisiana for the convenience of the parties. The Defendants do not oppose the transfer. Plaintiff may have initially filed the case in the Western District of Louisiana because the Defendants do business in Louisiana.1 See Doc. 58. The Western District of Louisiana's Local Rules direct that the case be assigned the appropriate division, which based on Plaintiff's representation is in the Shreveport Division.2 See W.D. La. LR77.3

Accordingly, it is now

ORDERED:

1. Plaintiff's Motion for Change of Venue to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana; or in the Alternative, Dismissal Without Prejudice to Refile in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana (Doc. 58) is GRANTED.

2. This case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court, Western District of Louisiana, Shreveport Division, for all further proceedings.

3. The Clerk is directed to immediately transfer this case to the United States District Court, Western District of Louisiana, Shreveport Division.

DONE AND ORDERED.
