Prairie Wind Co. and TerraBuild Inc. signed a construction subcontract stating: "Any lawsuit arising from this subcontract shall be brought only in the United States District Court for the District of State J." Prairie Wind later sued TerraBuild in the federal District of State K, where a substantial part of the construction work occurred. TerraBuild timely moves to transfer to the District of State J.
Prairie Wind argues that most witnesses and records are in State K, that State K law may apply to some issues, and that State K has a local interest in construction projects within its borders. TerraBuild argues that the clause is valid and that Prairie Wind should not be heard to complain about private inconvenience.
How should the court analyze TerraBuild's transfer motion? Discuss.
