COURT GRANTS PRO SE PLAINTIFF'S VENUE TRANSFER AFTER CASE HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY DISMISSED
MICHAEL GRIVESMAN, et al., Plaintiffs, vs. CARNIVAL CRUISE LINES, Defendants.
Case Number: 00 C 2091
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OFILLINOIS, EASTERN DIVISION
2001 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 5257
April 26, 2001, Decided
April 27, 2001, Docketed
OUTCOME:On January 24, 2001, we dismissed this action for improper venue. We noted in footnote 6 that plaintiffs had not asked for transfer to the federal court in the Southern District of Florida. On March 15, 2001, plaintiffs belatedly did ask for transfer. Given that they are pro se, we treat the motion as one for relief from judgment for mistake or inadvertence pursuant to Rule 60(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. We vacate the dismissal and transfer the case to the Southern District of Florida.
