Bauer was fired last June after a failed takeover bid to buy Lutheran Health Network from Community Health Systems.
CHS, which owns Lutheran Health Network, is suing Bauer for alleged breach of contract to lure competitor Indiana University Health to Fort Wayne. Bauer has a contract position with IU Health Fort Wayne.
The judge did rule the case would be held in Tennessee and not in Indiana.
