Question

Which of the following is a textbook example of the strategic litigation tactic known as "forum shopping?

Answer 1

Answer:

-When a plaintiff attempts to gain "home-court advantage" by fling his lawsuit in a courthouse close to his place of business

Explanation:

Forum shopping is the act of filling a lawsuit in a courthouse in which the plaintiff believes is likely to provide the most favorable outcome.

Forum shopping is a practice that occurs when filling a lawsuit, therefore a defendant is not able to practice forum shopping.

It is fair to assume that a plaintiff's place of business is likely to provide him the most favorable outcome.
