Answer:

Law permits Carlos the defendant to file a motion to exercise his right of removal and then file a motion for a change of venue.

Explanation:

Note that, <em>according</em> to US law this right of removal is claimed only by a defendant; a plaintiff cannot and does not have right of removal of a case he or she has commenced in state court.

Also, a motion for a change of venue can be petitioned by the defendant, Carlos to move a case to another location such as the federal district court in Michigan since it falls within the same jurisdiction.
