  We calculate the ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density for charged
black branes in third order Lovelock theory. For chargeless black branes, the
result turns out to be consistent with the prediction made in $\rm
arXiv:0808.3498[\rm hep-th] $. We find that, the third order Lovelock gravity
term does not contribute to causality violation unlike the Gauss-Bonnet term.
The stability of the black brane again requires the value of the Lovelock
coupling constant to be bounded by 1/4 in the infinite dimensionality limit.
