In Consolidated Actions Started in Different Counties, the County Where the First Action Was Brought is the Proper Venue

The Second Department determined the proper venue for consolidated actions started in different counties is the county where the first action was brought: ” ‘[W]here actions commenced in different counties have been consolidated pursuant to CPLR 602, the venue should be placed in the county where the first action was commenced, unless special circumstances are present which decision is also addressed to the sound discretion of the court’…” . Fitzsimons v Brennan, 2015 NY Slip Op 03802, 2nd Dept 5-6-15
