How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• recognizing that “the need—rooted in the valued public interest in judicial economy—to pursue the same claims in a single action in a single court can trump a forum-selection clause”
• concluding that, in light of Atlantic Marine , severance and transfer is proper if the private parties' choices-as expressed through a forum selection clause-outweigh the judicial efficiency of adjudicating all the claims in one forum
• explaining that these “procedural mechanisms” may “echo those used by judges in cases managed pursuant to multidistrict litigation statutes”
• recognizing, in case involving one forum selection clause that not all parties were subject to, that analysis of motion to sever and transfer claims of one party was “fact- sensitive”
• holding Atlantic Marine inapplicable to situations involving multiple forum-selection clauses, issuing a writ of mandamus to the district court to reconsider severance and transfer, and noting the importance of conserving judicial resources
• observing that Atlantic Marine does not categorically require severance in all situations
