By Leave a Comment

Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! This is another episode in our “Listen and Learn” series, where we review legal concepts and apply them to fact patterns. Today, we’re talking about a commonly tested Civ Pro topic — subject matter jurisdiction.

In this episode we discuss:

  • Review of the basic concept of jurisdiction
  • How to structure your subject matter jurisdiction essay answer
  • The rules for federal question and diversity
  • Determining citizenship and domicile for people and corporations
  • Analyzing two Civ Pro essay questions, from the February 2009 and July 2012 California bar exams
  • Other laws that tie into subject matter jurisdiction
