SB 188 California Senate · 2011-2012 Regular Session

Civil actions: jurisdiction.

Summary
Existing law authorizes a court to exercise jurisdiction on any basis not inconsistent with the California or the United States Constitutions. Existing law also requires a court to stay or dismiss an action in whole or in part on any conditions that may be just when the court finds that in the interest of substantial justice an action should be heard in a forum outside of the state. This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to these provisions.
