Id. All of the identified key witnesses in this case are in Washington, Japan, Ohio, and New York. No witnesses live in Texas. Even without including the four Japanese witnesses who would each have to travel an additional 1,756 miles or 7 hours by plane to Texas as compared with Washington State, the average travel required for each of the remaining six identified witnesses to Texas is approximately 700 miles more than to Washington. Furthermore, four of the identified witnesses live in Washington, and no witnesses live in Texas. The district court erroneously determined that the cost of attendance for willing witnesses only “slightly favors transfer.” On this record, this court does not agree with the district court’s assessment of the 100-mile tenet. See TS Tech, 551 F.3d at 1320 (<HOLDING>). The cost of attendance for willing witnesses
holding that a trial courts refusal to allow the defendant to attend the jury view was not prejudicial recognizing the same rule in texas courts recognizing this texas rule holding that it is function of trial court to judge witnesses credibility and to weigh conflicting evidence holding that the district courts refusal to considerably weigh this factor in favor of transfer was erroneous when the witnesses would need to travel approximately 900 more miles to attend trial in texas than in ohio
