Description
In this mandamus proceeding, the Texas Association of School Boards, Inc. and the Texas Association of School Boards Risk Management Fund seek to have a suit against them transferred from Duval County to Travis County based on a contractual choice of venue provision in a risk coverage agreement that is similar to an insurance contract. They assert that the agreement is a "major transaction" within the meaning of section 15.020 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code. Section 15.020 is a mandatory venue provision. If there is a written agreement that suit arising from a "major transaction" may be brought in a particular county, suit must be brought in that county.
