Section 302.3. Venue

1.  Juvenile  delinquency  proceedings  shall  be
  originated in the county in which the act or acts  referred  to  in  the
  petition  allegedly occurred. For purposes of determining venue, article
  twenty of the criminal procedure law shall apply.
    2. Upon motion of the respondent or the appropriate presentment agency
  the family court in which  the  proceedings  have  been  originated  may
  order,  for  good  cause  shown,  that  the proceeding be transferred to
  another county. If the order is issued after motion by  the  presentment
  agency,  the  court may impose such conditions as it deems equitable and
  appropriate to ensure that the transfer does not subject the  respondent
  to an unreasonable burden in making his defense.
    3. Any motion made pursuant to subdivision two by the respondent shall
  be  made within the time prescribed by section 332.2. Any such motion by
  a presentment agency must  be  based  upon  papers  stating  the  ground
  therefor  and  must  be  made  within thirty days from the date that the
  action was originated unless such time is extended for good cause shown.
    4. Except for  designated  felony  act  petitions,  after  entering  a
  finding  pursuant  to subdivision one of section 345.1, and prior to the
  commencement  of  the  dispositional  hearing  the  court  may,  in  its
  discretion  and  for  good  cause  shown,  order  that the proceeding be
  transferred to the county in which the  respondent  resides.  The  court
  shall  not  order  such  a  transfer,  however,  unless  it  grants  the
  respondent and the presentment agency an opportunity  to  state  on  the
  record  whether  each approves or disapproves of such a transfer and the
  reasons therefor. The court shall take into consideration the provisions
  of subdivisions two and three  of  section  340.2  in  determining  such
  transfer.
