Discussion Board Forum 1 Thread
Case
Study: Forum
Shopping
In its
user service agreement, Facebook includes a forum selection clause that
requires users with legal disputes to file any lawsuits against Facebook in
courts physically located near its northern California corporate headquarters.
Review the discussion of this issue in your textbook (Legal Strategy 101, pp.
100-101); then, analyze the following questions:
1. Is forum shopping ethical? What
are you using as your ethical standard?
2. Should courts enforce forum
selection clauses in business-to-consumer contracts like the Facebook user
agreement? Why or why not?
3. Suppose Facebook did not have a
forum selection clause in its user agreement. Would Facebook be subject to the
jurisdiction of every state court in the United States, since it has millions
of users in every U.S. state?
Refer to
the Assignment Instructions folder of the course for general directions and
grading rubrics for Discussion Boards, including requirements for word length,
scholarly sources, and integration of a Biblical worldview.
Use the
words "Ethical" or "Not Ethical" in the subject line of
your thread to identify your conclusion. Do not use attachments, as these are
cumbersome and inhibit the discussion process.
