ORDER ON MOTIONS TO DISMISS (DOCS. NO. 17, 19)
LEO T. SOROKIN, District Judge.
After careful review of the complaint, pending motions, and related papers, the Court finds that the convenience of the parties, the convenience of the potential witnesses, judicial economy, and the interests of justice are served by transferring this case to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia pursuant to 28 U.S.C § 1404(a).1 The motions to dismiss, Docs. No. 17, 19, are therefore ALLOWED IN PART, only to the extent they seek transfer, and are DENIED AS MOOT in all other respects. Whether Massachusetts law applies to any or all of the conduct alleged in the Complaint is not a question resolved by this Order. Similarly, transfer is warranted whether or not the Court may exercise personal jurisdiction over any or all of the defendants. Accordingly, the Court need not resolve that dispute. The Clerk shall transfer this case to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia.
SO ORDERED.
