California Codes, Code of Civil Procedure - CCP, Part 2 — Of Civil Actions, Title 10 — Actions in Particular Cases, Chapter 4 — Quiet Title, Article 1 — General Provisions, Section 760.050
Subject to the power of the court to transfer actions, the proper county for the trial of an action under this chapter is:
(a) Where the subject of the action is real property or real and personal property, the county in which the real property, or some part thereof, is located.
(b) Where the subject of the action is personal property, the county in which the personal property is principally located at the commencement of the action or in which the defendants, or any of them, reside at the commencement of the action.
Notes
Sets venue, subject to the court’s transfer power, in a county containing some of the real property when the action concerns real property or both real and personal property. If only personal property is involved, venue lies where that property is principally located when the action begins or where any defendant then resides.
