California:

As a general rule, a case must be filed in the county (and area of court location) in which the defendant resides. This general rule promotes fairness, since it's usually easier for a defendant to defend a case if it's filed in the locality where the defendant resides.

Manitoba:

The hearing of the claim must be held at the court centre nearest where the defendant resides or where the incident happened. A court date will be set at the time of filing. Once served, the date may only be changed by consent of all parties. As a claimant you must have the full and complete name and address of all parties involved in the action.

Indiana:

Generally, you need to file the suit in the county (or township, if you're in Marion County) where the:

* Transaction or incident took place, such as where you signed the contract or where the car accident happened
* Where the obligation was supposed to be performed, such as where your house is located if a plumber or roofer didn't do his job properly, for example
* Defendant lives (since there was no transaction, JMHO)
* Defendant works or is employed at the time you file the suit
* Property is located, if the case is a landlord-tenant dispute
