Grant Deed
The process by which a plaintiff chooses among two or more courts that have the power — technically, the correct jurisdiction and venue — to consider the plaintiff’s case. this decision is based on which court is likely to consider the case most favorably. in some instances, a case can properly be filed in two or more federal district courts as well as in the trial courts of several states — and this makes forum shopping a complicated business. it often involves weighing a number of factors, including proximity to the court, the reputation of the judge in the particular legal area, the likely type of available jurors, and subtle differences in governing law and procedure.
