Status of Hearing/Ruling on Motion to Transfer Case

Here we provide pure opinions, comments, and speculation concerning the Defense Motion to Transfer Venue which has been pending in the high-profile civil case of Goncalves et al. v. Washington State University. Now that the briefings are closed, has the court rendered a ruling or scheduled a hearing to entertain oral argument as requested by Plaintiffs on the matter? Everything here represents the pure opinion, commentary, speculation and rhetorical questions per the First Amendment to the United States Constitution which states at Amendment I: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.It is codified within Section 107 of the U.S. Copyright Act, which provides that fair use of a work “for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use, scholarship, or research)” is not an infringement of copyright.
