(Fox Factory, Inc. v. Superior Court (2017) 11 Cal.App.5th 197, 203-204.) The burden of proof is on Defendant with regard to this two-step analysis. (Stangvik, supra, 54 Cal.3d at 751.) The facts in this case reflect that the private and public interest factors weigh in favor of Georgia as the proper forum. All of the parties and witnesses reside in Georgia. The fact that Maul believes that California law may apply does not change the fact that California is not a convenient forum for this action. In addition, venue in Georgia does not foreclose the application of California law if properly applicable. Determination of a more convenient venue is not a determination that Georgia law must be applied. If proper, Georgia courts may apply California law.

Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss for Improper Venue Pursuant to CCP 410.30 GRANTED.

Dismissal is conditioned upon stipulation by Defendant to a waiver of any statute of limitations and timeliness defenses that would bar Plaintiff’s claims in Georgia.

Defendant’s Revised Proposed Order submitted to the court on 8.31.26 shall be signed and approved.
