These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Notwithstanding the special venue provisions of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C.A. §§ 12 , 22, a civil antitrust action may be transferred pursuant to 28 U.S.C.A. § 1404 (a). Smithkline Corp. v. Sterling Drug, Inc., 406 F.Supp. 52, 56-7 (D.Dela.1975); 1 Moore’s Federal Practice §§ ,144[15], .145[4.-1]. Thus, although the liberal venue provisions of the Clayton Act afford plaintiff a broad range of choice as to forum, the appropriateness of that choice must be measured by the standards of § 1404(a), which governs the transfer of an action properly brought. Ex parte Collett, 337 U.S. 55 , 69 S.Ct. 944 , 93 L.Ed. 1207 Paramount Pictures v. Rodney, 186 F.2d 111 (3d Cir.1950).”
