West Texas Chief Judge Warns Plaintiff Against Forum Shopping “for a Specific Judge”
On January 14, 2025, Proxense, LLC filed a new case in its sole ongoing litigation campaign, this one against Hyundai (Genesis, Kia). The suit was assigned to Western District of Texas Chief Judge Alia Moses. Proxense moved for an intradistrict transfer to District Judge Alan D. Albright, who has presided over multiple other cases in this campaign, some to the eve of trial. Judge Moses quickly denied that motion, ruling that Proxense is “mistaken” in its belief that the overlap with other cases provides “sufficient justification” for transfer: “This Court warns the Plaintiff in making such an attempt again”.
