Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 505409, member: 622"] You are probably correct. However, as you clearly point out, they would still be under NC law. They wanted the Maryland State courts for any possible advantage. This does not remove their burden to prove the ACC agreement is invalid. If they fail this step, the Maryland court would have to dismiss their case/rule for the ACC because the validated agreement states NC venue/law. Thus, the Terps only hope for a ruling completely in their favor is in the Maryland state courts. Even if the agreement is validated but he fee is punitive, Maryland is subject to the remaining terms of the ACC agreement, or NC courts. [/QUOTE]
