Code
Where a suit may
be instituted in any one of two or more Courts and is instituted in one of such Courts, any defendant, after
notice to the other parties, may, at the earliest possible opportunity and in all cases where issues are
settled at or before such settlement, apply to have the suit transferred to another Court, and the Court to
which such application is made, after considering the objections of the other parties (if any), shall
determine in which of the several Courts having jurisdiction the suit shall proceed.
