transitory action
- A type of legal action that can be initiated wherever the party being sued is present for personal jurisdiction purposes
- The nature of our claims makes it a transitory action, so we can technically sue them in any location where they are subject to jurisdiction.
- Despite being outside the state, the offender cannot evade the transitory action because courts can establish personal jurisdiction beyond state lines.
- When a legal issue is not tied to a specific geographic location, a transitory action can be an effective way to hold the defendant accountable.
