With no explanation, chose the best option from "A", "B", "C" or "D". acts occurred in New York at the April 1998 meeting, or at a later date-perhaps even at Ballard’s Utah offices-such considerations seem less important given the nature of this particular case. In any event, in cases where no forum is wholly convenient (or wholly obvious), a forum selection clause can and should tip the scales. Pascalides, 1 e clearest of standards, all of the traditional factors are at play here. Transfer, rather than dismissal provides all parties with an opportunity for a speedy resolution of the matter. Transfer prevents Plaintiff from facing unnecessary statute of limitation issues, and lastly, transfer rather than dismissal provides for a more efficient use of judicial resources. See Goldlawr, Inc. v. Heiman, 369 U.S. 463, 466-67, 82 S.Ct. 913, 8 L.Ed.2d 39(1962)(<HOLDING>). CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, this

A: holding that a dismissal on statute of limitations grounds is an adjudication on the merits for purposes of res judicata
B: holding that review is de novo where there has been no adjudication on the merits in state court
C: holding that purpose of transfer is that of removing whatever obstacles may impede an expeditious and orderly adjudication of cases and controversies on their merits
D: holding that a motion for a summary judgment is an appropriate means of seeking an adjudication on the merits
C.
