Jurisdiction!

What did the guy say? I can surmise that it is some nonsensical fact pattern, but I'd greatly appreciate if someone told me what the speech actually said.

--A 1L

Never mind. We recently started personal jurisdiction in Civ. Pro. The "nonsensical fact pattern" is from World-Wide Volkswagen v. Woodson!

lol

well this is just erie ;)

This is absolutely hilarious.

This is beyond incredible!!!!! Glad to know law students all over suffer through the conceptual mess of JURISDICTION!

lol freaking love it

hahahahahhhah

International Shoe! (It's the jurisdiction song)
Can this suit be brought
In this jurisdiction?
Does it have a shot?
Could the defendant
Reasonably foresee
Being made to answer?
International Shoe!

From the time you arrive as a 1L
And crack open your very first book
There is more to read than can ever be read
More notes to take than can ever be took

Now we no longer credit Pennoyer
So we're left with a hole in our law
Now the question for you
Where the hell can I sue?
Let's consult International Shoe

I'm posting the lyrics in chunks:

Jurisdiction! International Shoe!
Wor-ld-Wide-V-Dub-Yuuuu
And what about Burger King?
Don't forget there's also Asahi!
Jurisdiction! International Shoe!
Wor-ld-Wide-V-Dub-Yuuuu
And what about Burger King?
Hey! I told you don't forget about Asahi!
Jurisdiction! International Shoe!
Wor-ld-Wide-V-Dub-Yuuuu
Asahi! Asahi! Asahi! Asahi!

Contacts, fair play, and substantial justice
