Summary of Chapter 3: Personal Jurisdiction. Chapter 3 focuses on the concept of personal jurisdiction, which is a court's authority to make legal decisions affecting the parties involved in a lawsuit. Personal jurisdiction ensures that defendants are not unfairly brought into court in a state with which they have no meaningful connection. Key Points Covered: What is Personal Jurisdiction? Personal jurisdiction refers to a court's power over the individuals or entities involved in a lawsuit. It is essential for establishing the court's authority and ensuring due process. The Constitutional Basis for Personal Jurisdiction Rooted in the Due Process Clause of the U.S. Constitution, personal jurisdiction requires sufficient minimum contacts with the forum state, purposeful availment of the state's laws, and that exercising jurisdiction is reasonable and fair. Long-Arm Statutes State long-arm statutes extend personal jurisdiction to non-residents based on activities such as transacting business, committing a tort, or owning property in the state. These statutes ensure defendants can be brought to court in states where they have sufficient contacts. Service of Process Service of process is the formal procedure to notify defendants of legal actions. Methods include personal service, substituted service, service by mail, and service by publication. Proper service is crucial for establishing personal jurisdiction and ensuring due process. Consent and Waiver Defendants can consent to personal jurisdiction explicitly through forum selection clauses or implicitly by participating in activities within the forum state. Waiver occurs when defendants fail to timely raise a jurisdictional defense, thereby forfeiting their right to contest it. Challenging Personal Jurisdiction Defendants can challenge personal jurisdiction through motions to dismiss, arguing that the court lacks jurisdiction due to insufficient contacts. Special appearances can be made specifically to contest jurisdiction without submitting to the court's authority for other matters. Successful challenges result in dismissal or transfer of the case to a court with proper jurisdiction. Understanding personal jurisdiction is critical for ensuring that legal proceedings are fair and that defendants are not subjected to litigation in inappropriate forums. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/support

Subject Matter Jurisdiction. Subject matter jurisdiction refers to a court's authority to hear a case based on the nature of the dispute. It's a threshold issue that determines whether a court can adjudicate a particular matter. There are two primary forms of subject matter jurisdiction: federal jurisdiction and state jurisdiction. Federal and State Jurisdiction. Federal jurisdiction pertains to cases involving federal laws, treaties, or the US Constitution. Federal courts also hear cases where the United States government is a party. The authority of federal courts is derived from Article III of the Constitution and various federal statutes. State jurisdiction, on the other hand, is much broader. State courts typically handle cases involving state laws, including family law, real estate, probate, and most contract and tort cases. State courts can also hear cases involving federal law, provided they don't exclusively fall under federal jurisdiction. A key aspect of subject matter jurisdiction is that it cannot be waived or consented to by the parties. If a court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any judgment or order it issues is void. Federal Question Jurisdiction. Federal question jurisdiction exists when a plaintiff's claim arises under federal law. This concept is rooted in Article III, Section 2 of the US Constitution and is codified in 28 USC § 1331. A case can be brought in federal court if it involves the interpretation or application of a federal statute, a constitutional issue, or a federal treaty. The 'well-pleaded complaint' rule is central to federal question jurisdiction. This rule stipulates that the federal question must be present in the plaintiff's original complaint; it cannot be based solely on a potential defense or a counterclaim. Diversity Jurisdiction. Diversity jurisdiction, as outlined in 28 USC § 1332, gives federal courts the authority to hear cases where the parties are citizens of different states or a foreign country and the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000. This type of jurisdiction aims to provide a neutral forum for parties from different states or countries. For diversity purposes, a party's citizenship is determined by their domicile, not merely their residence. Corporations are considered citizens of both the state where they are incorporated and the state where they have their principal place of business. Supplemental Jurisdiction. Supplemental jurisdiction allows federal courts to hear additional claims that are related to those within their original jurisdiction, even if the related claims would not independently qualify for federal jurisdiction. Codified in 28 USC § 1367, this concept is grounded in judicial efficiency, allowing related claims to be heard in a single proceeding. Supplemental jurisdiction applies when the additional claims share a "common nucleus of operative fact" with the claims that invoked original federal jurisdiction. However, courts have discretion to reject supplemental jurisdiction if it would overshadow the original basis for jurisdiction or raise complex state law issues. Personal Jurisdiction. Personal jurisdiction refers to a court's power over the parties involved in the litigation. Without personal jurisdiction, a court cannot bind a party to its decisions. Traditional Basis of Personal Jurisdiction. Historically, courts could establish personal jurisdiction over a defendant if they were physically present in the state, domiciled in the state, or had consented to the jurisdiction. These traditional bases ensured that defendants had a clear connection to the state where the court was located. Long-arm statutes enable courts to reach beyond their state's borders to exercise jurisdiction over out-of-state defendants. These statutes vary by state but generally allow courts to assert jurisdiction over non-residents who have certain types of contacts with the state, such as committing a tortious act within the state or doing business in the state. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/law-school/support

In personam is a Latin phrase meaning "against a particular person". In a lawsuit in which the case is against a specific individual, that person must be served with a summons and complaint (E&W known as Particulars of Claim (CPR 1999) to give the court jurisdiction to try the case, and the judgment applies to that person and is called an "in personam judgment". In personam is distinguished from in rem, which applies to property or "all the world" instead of a specific person. This technical distinction is important to determine where to file a lawsuit and how to serve a defendant. In personam means that a judgment can be enforceable against the person wherever he or she is. On the other hand, if the lawsuit is to determine title to property (in rem) then the action must be filed where the property exists and is only enforceable there. In rem jurisdiction ("power about or against 'the thing'") is a legal term describing the power a court may exercise over property (either real or personal) or a "status" against a person over whom the court does not have in personam jurisdiction. Jurisdiction in rem assumes the property or status is the primary object of the action, rather than personal liabilities not necessarily associated with the property. A quasi in rem legal action (Latin, "as if against a thing") is a legal action based on property rights of a person absent from the jurisdiction. In the American legal system the state can assert power over an individual simply based on the fact that this individual has property (bank account, debt, share of stock, land) in the state. Quasi in rem jurisdiction does not have much function in the United States any longer. However, in very specific cases, quasi in rem jurisdiction can still be effective. A quasi in rem action is commonly used when jurisdiction over the defendant is unobtainable due to their absence from the state. Any judgment will affect only the property seized, as in personam jurisdiction is unobtainable. Of note, in a quasi in rem case the court may lack personal jurisdiction over the defendant, but it has jurisdiction over the defendant's property. The property could be seized to obtain a claim against the defendant. A judgment based on quasi in rem jurisdiction generally affects rights to the property only between the persons involved and does not "bind the entire world" as does a judgment based on "jurisdiction in rem". --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/law-school/support

Personal jurisdiction is a court's jurisdiction over the parties, as determined by the facts in evidence, which bind the parties to a lawsuit, as opposed to subject-matter jurisdiction, which is jurisdiction over the law involved in the suit. Without personal jurisdiction over a party, a court's rulings or decrees cannot be enforced upon that party, except by comity; for example, to the extent that the sovereign which has jurisdiction over the party allows the court to enforce them upon that party. A court that has personal jurisdiction has both the authority to rule on the law and facts of a suit and the power to enforce its decision upon a party to the suit. In some cases, territorial jurisdiction may also constrain a court's reach, such as preventing hearing of a case concerning events occurring on foreign territory between two citizens of the home jurisdiction. A similar principle is that of standing or locus standi, which is the ability of a party to demonstrate to the court sufficient connection to and harm from the law or action challenged to support that party's participation in the case. International principles. Since there is no world government which all countries recognize to arbitrate disputes over jurisdiction, sovereign powers can find themselves in conflict over which is the more appropriate venue to hear a case, or which country's laws should apply. These conflicts are sometimes resolved de facto by physical factors, such as which country has physical possession of a defendant or property, or sometimes by use of physical police or military force to seize people or property. A country with loose rule of law – for example an absolute monarchy with no independent judiciary – may arbitrarily choose to assert jurisdiction over a case without citing any particular justification. Such assertion can cause problems, such as encouraging other countries to take arbitrary actions over foreign citizens and property, or even provoking skirmishes or armed conflict. In practice, many countries operate by one or another principles, either in written law or in practice, which communicate when the country will and will not assert jurisdiction: treaty jurisdiction — An international treaty explicitly decides the issue. territorial principle — A country asserts jurisdiction over people, property, and events taking place on its own territory. nationality principle — A country asserts jurisdiction over the conduct of its citizens, anywhere in the world. passive personality principle — A country asserts jurisdiction over acts committed against its citizens, anywhere in the world. protective principle — A country asserts jurisdiction over issues that affect its interests, such as conspiracies to overthrow its government, or resources critical to its economy (such as access to an international waterway) universal jurisdiction — A country asserts jurisdiction over certain acts committed by anyone, anywhere in the world. Usually reserved for exceptionally serious crimes, such as war crimes and crimes against humanity. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/law-school/support

This is the final episode in this series. Thanks to the Personal Jurisdiction team for joining me in this important work. In this week's episode I speak with Doron Gold who is a psychotherapist and former practicing lawyer (primarily in the area of family law) from Toronto, Canada. Doron works primarily with lawyers, law students, and judges as well as other professionals. His personal experience working in the legal profession, coupled with his many years of experiences working with lawyers in distress at the Ontario Lawyers' Assistance Program (OLAP) give him a unique and valuable perspective on the challenges faced by these individuals. In addition to treating lawyers, Doron presents regularly on issues related to mental health for lawyers. He is a graduate of York University and York University's Osgoode Hall Law School and the University of Windsor from which he holds a Masters of Social Work. You can learn more about him and his work on Twitter @DoronJGold. In the episode we discuss his personal path from lawyer to therapist, the mental health challenges that lawyers often face, ways that lawyers can and should find help, why perfectionism is so common in legal professionals (and the challenges resulting from this perfectionism), the importance of thinking about "how you feel as opposed to how should you feel," learning about yourself and the real (as opposed to perceived) expectations of those around you, the power of therapy when you find the right person to talk to, techniques for finding the right person to talk to, the difference between feedback and criticism, the benefit of "finding your people" and building community, the value of showing kindness when you see a meaningful change in a friend or colleague, and more.

Bridgette Carr is a Clinical Professor of Law and the Associate Dean for Strategic Initiatives at the University of Michigan Law School. She is also the founding director of the Law School's Human Trafficking Clinic, the first clinical law program solely devoted to addressing this issue comprehensively. Bridgette is also a first generation college graduate who wasn't sure law school was for her. She didn't so a journal or apply for a clerkship, and instead spent her spare time during law school working at a local legal aid office and an asylum shelter. Despite now being an expert on human trafficking, Bridgette hadn't heard of human trafficking work until after she graduated from law school. Vivek Sankaran is also a Clinical Professor of Law at the University of Michigan Law School. He directs both the Child Advocacy Law Clinic and the Child Welfare Appellate Clinic, through which law students represent children and parents in trials and appellate proceedings. He is also a father of three boys, he loves coaching youth sports, and he is learning to play the guitar. Together they teach a course that they created called “Finding a Fulfilling Life in the Law” at the University of Michigan Law School. In it, they ask students to consider what they want out of life after law school and how they can create that life. The course applies innovative principles of problem solving to the concept of designing your life in and beyond law school. Bridgette and Vivek also recently launched an exciting new business—LawLifeProf Coaching—to help lawyers in practice build a toolbox for a fulfilling life. In their conversation they discuss why being curious, trying new things, and staying connected to people you care about can help you to design a fulfilling life in the law. There is no yellow brick road, there is no checklist - but Bridgette and Vivek share many pieces of advice and personal reflections for anyone who is not quite fulfilled in their career.

**This month, May 2022, How I Lawyer is teaming up with the Personal Jurisdiction Podcast (https://www.personaljxpod.com/) to feature five interviews on the important topic of mental health in the legal profession. Learn more here.** In today's episode I speak with Professor Heidi Brown who is the Director of the Legal Writing Program at Brooklyn Law School. Having grappled with extreme performance anxiety as a law student, attorney, and new law professor, Heidi ultimately untangled her fears, and embraced authenticity as a powerful asset in teaching and practicing law. She is the author of two fantastic books on the subject, The Introverted Lawyer: A Seven-Step Journey Toward Authentically Empowered Advocacy, and Untangling Fear in Lawyering: A Four-Step Journey Toward Powerful Advocacy. Professor Brown's brand new book, The Flourishing Lawyer, analogizes law students and lawyers to athletes and performers & offers a fresh lens through which to view the palpable challenge of enriching and safeguarding well-being in the legal profession—an approach that (1) champions individual and collective strengths, rather than stigmatizing purported weaknesses, and (2) redefines “character and fitness to practice law” as attributes we can, and must, actively and continuously cultivate, as individuals and legal communities. She recently earned her master's degree in Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania and holds a BA and JD from the University of Virginia. In our conversation we discuss her path in the law and her decision to study topics related to mental health and success in the legal profession, staying true to yourself as a lawyer, the difference between introversion and social anxiety, techniques from athletes and performers that can be applied to a career in the law, and so much more.

That's right, Hulkamaniacs. This week's supersized episode covers this year's Wrestelmania while covering the past, present and future implications that Ford Motor Company v. Bandemere has on personal jurisdiction. A time stamp would be pointless, but there's a surprising amount of law that is certainly more than I originally intended.
What does the U.S. Supreme Court's March 25 decision regarding personal jurisdiction in the Ford cases mean for litigants and litigation across the country? Join McGlinchey attorneys Rasch Brown, Gary Hebert, and Brian LeCompte for the fourth installment in their series on the changing landscape of general personal jurisdiction.
Personal Jurisdiction (Specific) upheld.Support the show (https://paypal.me/SCOTUSsyllabus)
The U.S. Supreme Court recently heard oral arguments on two potentially groundbreaking personal jurisdiction cases known as “the Ford cases.” In this third episode from our series on Personal Jurisdiction, Rasch Brown, Gary Hebert, and Brian LeCompte (New Orleans) discuss their take on what they heard from the litigants and from the bench.
This episode is a tutorial that puts the doctrine of personal jurisdiction into some broader context. I offer a little bit of history and offer some big-picture framing that might help you with your mastery of this subject. Notice that there is a separate episode that focuses on applying the doctrine to a given set of facts--that episode is called 12(b)(6) in Practice. The episodes do not really overlap, except to the extent that they both address one of the most important topics in a Civil Procedure course.
In the second installment of More with McGlinchey’s series on personal jurisdiction, Rasch Brown, Gary Hebert, and Brian LeCompte discuss the potentially groundbreaking Ford cases pending before the U.S. Supreme Court. Given recent Court precedent, is personal jurisdiction forever changed? How far will the Court go on this? This episode presents the Ford cases in some detail, discusses potential outcomes, and closes with commentary as to the impact of various outcomes. To listen to all episodes of More with McGlinchey, visit us at mcglinchey.com/podcast. If you have a question or would like to propose a topic, we would love to hear from you at podcast@mcglinchey.com.
This episode is about the 12(b)(2) motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction. The episode gives an overview of the following jurisdictional bases: Congressional Statutes (S), Federal Rule 4(k)(1)(B) and 4(k)(2) (R), Personal Service (S), Waiver (W), Status (S), Consent/Forum Selection Clauses (C), General Jurisdiction (G), and Specific Jurisdiction (S).
How is it that in 2020, we are still discussing personal jurisdiction? Wasn't this decided in the last century? What has changed? These questions have become increasingly relevant following sea change decisions in Goodyear, Daimler, and Bristol Myers. In this episode, McGlinchey Stafford members Rasch Brown, Gary Hebert, and Brian LeCompte discuss these questions and more as we await what promises to be a landmark ruling in a case involving Ford from the U.S. Supreme Court.

Halyard Health v. Kimberly Clark 2nd DCABrian and Shant discuss a declaratory relief action in a matter that arises out of Michael Avenatti’s Kimberly Clark Case. The issue is whether Delaware or California law dictates which defendant is responsible for a punitive damages award granted to the plaintiffs. Safechuck v. MJJ Productions 2nd DCABrian and Shant discuss childhood sexual assault lability of a 3rd party non-perpetrator and whether a revival statute applies to two adults over the age of majority. AB 218 recently amended the statute of limitations under CCP 340.1, and claims can now be brought before the victim’s 40th birthday. Even if an action was previously dismissed, the issue of whether the amended statute applies is determined by the finality of the underlying dismissed action. Warwick Ca. Corp v. Applied Underwriters 1st DCABrian and Shant discuss an appeal from a statement of decision issued by a trial court. A statement of decisions is not an automatically appealable order because it is not a judgment that has can be entered or enforced. It can be a precurser to a judgment but here no judgment was ever entered. Shayan v. Spine Care & Orthopedic Physicians 2nd DCABrian and Shant discuss an interpleader action where a client had to compete with the other creditors for the remainder of the settlement. Ultimately, the opposition did not show up to the interpleader action and subsequent counsel sought to vacate under a 473(b) motion. Failing to appear for a trial does not warrant relief.
Because everybody needs a little PJ in their life.
In this episode Dean Emeritus and Professor of Law, Michelle Simon explains Personal Jurisdiction.

Zoe Niesel, assistant professor, director of the Law Success Program and co-director of the Legal Research and Writing Program at St. Mary’s University School of Law, discusses her research on defining personal jurisdiction in the age of internet contacts. She was on campus in March of 2018 as part of the law school's speaker exchange.
48: A Sliding Scale Approach to Specific Personal Jurisdiction? by
This week's episode covers a topic that will either (a) make you think differently about an important component of the American civil justice system, or (b) make you bored and confused. Brett and Nazim are hoping for the former as they cover general personal jurisdiction concepts, why law students are afraid of personal jurisdiction, and how all that comes together in the case of BNSF Railway Co. v Tyrell. Law starts at (08:39).
