Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We reverse the order granting defendant’s motion to transfer venue in this cause. “[W]here venue is proper in more *1012than one county, the choice of forum rests with a plaintiff and will not lightly be set aside.” Government Employees Ins. Co. v. Burns, 672 So.2d 834, 835 (Fla. 3d DCA 1996). No basis to set aside plaintiffs choice of forum has been demonstrated.

Reversed and remanded.
