Section 2049-WW. Preference for actions or proceedings against authority

Any action or proceeding to which the authority or  the  people  of  the
  state may be parties, in which any question arises as to the validity of
  this  title, shall be preferred over all other civil causes of action or
  cases, except election causes of action or cases, in all courts  of  the
  state and shall be heard and determined in preference to all other civil
  business  pending  therein,  except  election  causes,  irrespective  of
  position on the calendar. The same  preference  shall  be  granted  upon
  application  of the authority or its counsel in any action or proceeding
  questioning the validity of this title in which  the  authority  may  be
  allowed  to  intervene. The venue of any such action or proceeding shall
  be laid in the supreme court of the county in which the principal office
  of the authority is located.
