                   JONATHAN MOLLEUR

                   Defendant/Counterclaim Plaintiff


                                           MOTION TO TRANSFER CASE TO SUPERIOR COURT
                                         BUSINESS LITIGATION SESSION IN SUFFOLK COUNTY

                               Defendant/Counterclaim Plaintiff Jonathan Molleur (“Mr. Molleur”) hereby moves

                   pursuant to Superior Court Administrative Directive 17-1 and M.G.L. ch. 223 § 13 for an order

                   transferring this case to the Massachusetts Superior Court Business Litigation Session in Suffolk

                   County.          In further support of this Motion, Mr. Molleur states as follows:

                               1      This case involves the falling out between two former law partners and the related

                   dispute over the dissolution of their law firm, Advocates Legal Group (“ALG”).                The claims at

                   issue involve, among others, breaches of fiduciary duty, accounting, fraud, misrepresentation,

                   and interference with business and contractual relationships.          Mr. Molleur anticipates that a trial

                   of this matter will likely involve numerous expert witnesses on topics including fiduciary duties

                    owed between partners and proper accounting practices.

                               2.     The partnership dispute and claims at issue relating to the liability and obligations of

                   partners and the governance and internal affairs of a partnership are appropriate claims to be

                    accepted into and heard by the           perior Court Business Litigation Session.   See Superior Court
