Lora v. JFK Int'l Airport U.S. Customs & Border Prots. Office Chief Counsel, No. 20-2799, 2020 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 62301 (S.D.N.Y. Apr. 8, 2020) (McMahon, J.)

Re:  Request for records concerning package mailed from Dominican Republic and addressed to plaintiff's residence in Hazleton, Pennsylvania

Disposition:  Transferring case to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania

  • Litigation Considerations, Venue:  The court relates that "Plaintiff alleges that he resides in Hazleton, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania."  "He does not state where his principal place of business is."  "He alleges that the records he seeks from CBP concern a package addressed to his residence that was mailed from the Dominican Republic, and that CBP seized at JFK Airport."  The court finds that "JFK Airport, however, is not in this judicial district."  "It therefore does not appear that there is any basis for venue in this district."
