FAQ
The judge must review the facts of the specific case and determine whether a change of venue would be appropriate. For example, the judge may look into whether the foreign national may have a valid defense to removal. They also may be more likely to grant a change of venue if the case has not already been delayed.
Change of venue is the transfer of a legal action from one county to another county for trial. In criminal cases a change of venue is permitted if, for example, the court believes the defendant cannot receive a fair trial in a given county.
For example, in California, when a bailiff or marshal calls the court to order part of the cry will take the form "in and for the County of San Francisco"; when there is a change of venue the cry will be, "in the County of Alameda for the County of San Francisco."
A change of venue is the legal term for moving a trial to a new location.

Brief Synopsis: A motion to transfer a state court case from one courthouse to another, often in another county, is based upon an argument that a “fair and impartial trial cannot be held in the county” usually due to news coverage and/or the popularity and prominence of the defendant.
It's very rare for a prosecutor to request a change of venue. I only know of one case and I will describe it below. Changes of venue are generally because it is believed than an impartial jury cannot be impaneled in the current venue. Obviously this is more often a concern for the defense than the prosecution.
For example, in California, when a bailiff or marshal calls the court to order part of the cry will take the form "in and for the County of San Francisco"; when there is a change of venue the cry will be, "in the County of Alameda for the County of San Francisco."
An application for a change of venue must be filed at least 10 days before the date set for trial. The Judicial Council of California plays a role after the court grants a change of venue. The Judicial Council of California does not decide whether a change of venue should occur.
