Chance Corp has determined that filing lawsuits would be in the best interest of the corporation. Using what you have learned after a careful reading and in-depth analysis of chapter 3: (1) consider these facts, (2) identify any potential issues and, (3) provide solutions to resolve all legal matters:

Chance Corporation is incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and its principal place of business is the Commonwealth of Virginia. The trespasser is a citizen of Maryland. Chance Corps property is also located in Virginia. The Corporation is concerned about where to file the lawsuits and wonders if the courts will have the power to hear their case, so Chance files the first lawsuit with the appellate court in Virginia for $100,000 claiming damages to the landscape and the taking of property off the land owned by Chance. After hearing of the lawsuit, the legislature in Virginia has promised to review the case after it has concluded as part of their authority under the Constitution to ensure fairness for both parties to avoid bad publicity for the state. Chance Corp learns of this on Fox News and is now considering filing the lawsuit in a federal court instead and wonders if this strategy is even possible. Regardless, the VP of Operations at Chance Corp is confident the Corporation will be able to appeal any decision to the US Supreme Court directly. Unbeknownst to the VP, some justices like taking cases and others do not, so it depends on the individual political attitudes and philosophies of the justices. Chance Corp wonders if they can request a trial with a jury that might be sympathetic to large corporations to avoid a surprise decision by the legislature in Virginia.
