Notwithstanding the provisions of sections 508.320 and 508.330 , if, in any civil or criminal case pending in districts 1 or 2 of the circuit court of Marion County, the application for change of venue alleges that the inhabitants of Marion County are prejudiced against the applicant, or that the opposite party has an undue influence over the inhabitants of Marion County, then such change of venue may be awarded to any circuit court, outside of Marion county, in the same, adjoining or next adjoining circuit where the causes complained of do not exist, and the court to which said cause is so transferred shall have power and jurisdiction to dispose of the same as is provided by law in other cases of change of venue.
