[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 1949494, member: 13624"] You need to talk to a real lawyer, and bring the specifics of the case. Ordinarily, the suit would have to be filed where the Defendant lives or does business, but since you're being accused of enticing people to break their contracts with a Maryland corporation, the Maryland courts might be able to obtain jurisdiction under the "effects test;" that is, jurisdiction attaches where the effects are felt. The fact that the booth owners weren't made aware of the media purchase requirement until after they bought the booths might also be relevant: if that was sprung upon them, then it might not be part of any contract. You still might have to fight that battle in Maryland, though. Bottom line: get a real lawyer, and take the specific facts to him. [/QUOTE]
