Chapter two involves jurisdiction. Fortunately, I do not have much experience with the court system. It sounds to me that a good lawyer can manipulate the venue to get a good outcome. My niece did have a dispute in a custody battle. Her lawyer decided not to press the custody of her daughter. My niece's boyfriend did sue for custody in Dixon. My niece was unable to get the proceedings moved to Jo Daviess county and she then had to travel to Dixon for multiple court appearances on this issue. She later won the dispute and was awarded custody of her daughter.
Another question would be on work comp issues. If an employee works for a company and does work in another state for that company--then gets injured--what state has the court proceedings (The state where the company is located or the state in which the accident occurred)?
The information in this chapter is good for common knowledge--not just needed information for this class
