Sample Question
A chef from State A sued a butcher from State B in State A federal court seeking $100,000 in compensation. The compensation was for tortious injuries caused in a car accident by the butcher's allegedly negligent driving while he was in State A. Apart from the single day of the car accident, the butcher has not spent any time in State A.

What course of action may the butcher's lawyer take?

File a motion to dismiss for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction because the butcher does not have minimum contacts with State A.

File a motion to transfer the case to State B federal court in order to cure the defect in personal jurisdiction.

File a motion to transfer venue due to the burden that would be imposed on the butcher if he were required to litigate in State A.
