ORDER
The Court hereby adopts Magistrate Judge Jackson’s extremely well-reasoned Report &
Recommendation (Dkt. No. 26) insofar as its conclusion that defendant Meta Platforms, Inc. is not
subject to general nor specific jurisdiction in Oklahoma.
However, rather than dismiss the action at hand, the Court, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631,
hereby ORDERS that the same be TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the
District of Delaware.1 The Court notes that defendant Meta Platforms, Inc. is incorporated in
Delaware, thus jurisdiction lies in said federal district.
So Ordered.
