It is a FEDERAL law (and is handled by a FEDERAL court), basically under the same rules everywhere. (Some Courts allow special definitions for things in the case, basically to conform to the custom of the area they generally hear cases in). You file in a Federal District Court, which may or may not have any relationship to your County or even State.
