Rule 49.03 - Transfer of Venue Procedures
(a) Transfer of Venue. If the court grants a motion to transfer venue to another county, the court shall do so by ordering a continuance and providing all documents filed in the adoption proceeding to the other court through the court information system. The transferring court also shall provide copies of the order of transfer to the Commissioner of Human Services and any agency participating in the proceedings. The judge of the receiving court shall accept the order of the transfer and any other documents transmitted and hear the case.
(b) Transfer of Jurisdiction. If the court grants a motion to transfer jurisdiction to another state or tribal court, the court shall do so by ordering a continuance and sending to the court administrator of the appropriate court a copy of all documents filed, together with a certification that all documents are true and accurate copies of the originals. In the alternative, all documents may be transferred to the receiving court electronically if the receiving court consents and both courts have the resources and technical capacity to accommodate the electronic transfer. The transferring court shall also provide copies of the order of transfer to the Commissioner of Human Services and any agency participating in the proceedings.
