OPINION
TAYLOR, Judge.
In this medical malpractice suit, the trial court granted real parties in interest’s (defendants) request for change of venue pursuant to A.R.S. § 12-401. The Court of Appeals, Division One, declined jurisdiction of petitioners’ (plaintiffs) special action petition challenging the trial court’s ruling. We granted review to address an important issue of law regarding venue in suits involving both individual and corporate defendants. We have jurisdiction pursuant to Article 6, Section 5(3), of the Arizona Constitution and A.R.S. § 12-120.24.
