In this episode, we discuss:

Establishing personal jurisdiction through traditional bases
The difference between "domicile" and "presence"
Long-arm statutes and ties to the forum state
The two parts of the constitutional analysis
General jurisdiction and specific jurisdiction
Analyzing two hypos from previous California bar exams
Structuring an answer to a personal jurisdiction question
