Universal Music Group’s copyright dispute with Internet TV start-up Veoh Networks Inc. will be handled in an L.A. court after a federal judge in San Diego dismissed a parallel case.

Veoh filed a preemptive suit against Santa Monica-based Universal in August seeking a home turf advantage, U.S. District Judge Thomas J. Whelan ruled. Universal sued San Diego-based Veoh the following month in Los Angeles federal court, accusing it of illegally hosting Universal’s content on the Web.
