MEMORANDUM DECISION
For the reasons set forth in defendants Sturm Foods, Inc.'s and Treehouse Foods Inc.'s joint unopposed motion to transfer venue, this action should be transferred to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Illinois. The Court finds this action could have been filed in the Southern District of Illinois and transfer of venue to that district serves the convenience of witnesses and the interests of justice. See 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a).
Therefore, the Clerk is ordered transfer this action to the Southern District of Illinois. The initial conference scheduled in this action for December 2, 2011, at 11:00 a.m. is cancelled.
The Clerk is instructed to terminate this motion (Doc. #5).
