legal question (Change of Venue)?

What are a couple reason why a change of venue will be granted. I am asking for my case to be heard in another non predujudice city, a larger city is better for me, how can I get this point across to the judge. I live in a small town and important details were printed on the front page of the Sunday paper and everyone local saw it, and knows about it, beside that point, what else are good arguements to get this to go in my favor?

    Being unable to impanel an impartial jury is about it, and you had better have lots of evidence of that. One article is a bit weak, since newspapers are kinda dying. How about TV, internet, radio, speaker trucks, shortwave amateur broadcasts, school announcements, flyers on telephone poles? Sadly, you don't say....

    Source(s): Commonwealth v. John Allen Muhammad Commonwealth v. Lee Boyd Malvo Both had transfers of venue. Look 'em up, dude. http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=Commonwealth%20v.... http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=Commonwealth%20v.... I looked 'em up for you. Now, all ya gotta do is read.
