How courts have described this case

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

• concluding that transfer was necessary to avoid loss of plaintiff’s claims due to statute of limitations
• observing that the district court properly denied transfer to a district in which venue was improper
• explaining that “[i]n instances where a [Title VII] complaint is timely filed and later dismissed [for improper venue], the timely filing of the complaint does not ‘toll’ or suspend the [Federal] 90-[D]ay [L]imitations [P]eriod.”
• reversing dismissal as abuse of discretion where “only three months had transpired without action on [pro se plaintiffs] part’
• finding transfer more appropriate than dismissal when statute of limitations may have run on some of plaintiff's claims
• “Whether dismissal or -- --- transfer is appropriate lies within the sound discretion of the district court.”
