Venue

In pleading and practice. A neighborhood; the neighborhood, place or county in which an injury is declared to have been done or fact declared to have happened. 3 Bl. Comm. 294. Venue also denotes the county in which an action or prosecution is brought for trial, and which is to furnish the panel of jurors. To "change the venue" is to transfer the cause for trial to another county or district. See Moore v. Gardner, 5 How. Prae. (N. Y.) 243; Armstrong v. Emmet, 16 Tex. Civ. App. 242, 41 S. W. 87 ; Suilivan v. Hall, 86 Mich. 7, 48 N. W. 646, 13 In R. A. 556; Sinte v. McKinney, 5 Nev. 198. In the common-law practice, the venue ls that part of the declaration in an action which designates the county in which the action is to be tried. Sweet.

— Local venue. In pleading. A venue which must be laid in a particular county. When the action could have arisen only in a particular county, it is local, and the venue must be laid in that county. 1 Tidd, Pr. 427.
