    Transfer was refused because plaintiff intentionally filed separate suits rather than seeking consolidation, Suit 178 was not ready for trial and transferring it would likely inconvenience the receiving judge and delay trials already ready in OCVC3, any alleged savings of time and costs were insubstantial, and the application was filed too late; therefore the requirements of Order 57 r.1(1) and desirability under Order 4 r.1(1) were not satisfied.
