Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! In today's "Listen and Learn" episode, we look at the various ways of establishing whether a court has jurisdiction over the parties in a lawsuit.

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
