Gale A. Norton, Attorney General, Timothy M. Tymkovich, Solicitor General, Garth Lucero, Deputy Attorney General, Jane R. Christman, First Assistant Attorney General, Douglas J. Cox, Assistant Attorney General, Tort Litigation Section, Denver, for Petitioners.

Chief Justice VOLLACK delivered the Opinion of the Court.

In this original proceeding filed pursuant to C.A.R. 21,1 we issued a rule to show cause why Boulder County District Court should not grant the petitioners' motion for a change of venue. We hold that the district court erroneously denied the petitioners' motion for change of venue under C.R.C.P. 98(b)(2). We thus make the rule to show cause absolute.
