Question 1

A plaintiff files a federal civil complaint in the District of Oregon. The defendant lives in Idaho and the events occurred in Washington. Defendant timely moves to dismiss for improper venue. The court should:

Deny the motion because venue is proper wherever the plaintiff resides Grant the motion because federal venue requires a connection to the defendant's residence or where events occurred Transfer the case sua sponte to the District of Columbia Deny the motion because all federal districts have nationwide venue

Correct Answer:

Grant the motion because federal venue requires a connection to the defendant's residence or where events occurred

Question 2

A diversity action between a New York plaintiff and a California defendant seeks $80,000 in damages. Plaintiff later amends to add a related state-law claim for $10,000 against a co-defendant from New York. Does the federal court have subject-matter jurisdiction over the added claim?

Yes, because supplemental jurisdiction extends to all related claims No, because adding a non-diverse defendant destroys complete diversity Yes, because the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000 in aggregate No, because the amended claim must independently satisfy the amount in controversy

Correct Answer:

No, because adding a non-diverse defendant destroys complete diversity

Question 3

A plaintiff serves a request for production seeking the defendant corporation's privileged internal investigation memo prepared by in-house counsel. The defendant objects on attorney-client privilege grounds. Plaintiff argues the memo also contains business advice. The court should:

Order production because in-house counsel communications are never privileged Order production only of business-advice portions, protecting legal-advice portions Deny production entirely because internal investigations are absolutely privileged Order production only if plaintiff shows substantial need

Correct Answer:

Order production only of business-advice portions, protecting legal-advice portions
