1. ““Civil Rule 3(B) expressly provides that proper venue lies in any county in which the venue requirements of any one of subsections (1) through (9) of Rule3(B) apply. In other words, there may be more than one county in which there is proper venue of an action. Pursuant to Civil Rule 3(BX1), proper venue lies, in all cases, in the county in which the defendant resides. Subsection (9) of Civil Rule 3(B) is not a limitation wpon any of the first eight subsections thereof. Rather, subsection (9), like subsection (10), sets forth the only circumstances in which the county where the plaintiff resides can constitute a county where proper venue lies and, consequently, where the defendant can be served with process in this state. “* * * “We conclude that Civil Rule 3(B) has expanded venue in divorce actions and that, where proper jurisdictional requirements are met, a divorce action may be brought in the county in which the defendant resides, as well as the county in which the claim for relief arose, or the county in which the plaintiff has resided for ninety days.” (Emphasis added.)”
