A. Federal, State, or Concurrent Jurisdiction? These clients need your help! Determine whether the client has a federal case, state case, or if the case might fall into concurrent jurisdiction and could be filed in either federal or state court. Mark (F) for federal, (S) for state, and (C) for concurrent jurisdiction. Highlight the evidence that supports your answer. David Greene and his wife Laura wanted to renovate their kitchen, so they signed a contract with Shoddy & Sons, a local builder, and gave the company a $10,000 deposit. Shoddy & Sons failed to do any work on the project and won’t respond to Mr. Greene’s phone calls, and the Greenes want their money back.

State

Explanation:

The clients' case is a STATE CASE. This is because the clients or the plaintiffs and the defendants are in the same state. Since it has been established that the defendant is a local builder (Shoddy & Sons, is a local building company).

A State court is authorized to hear cases that deal with laws and citizens of the same state or locality while a Federal court is authorized to hear cases that deal with laws and citizens of different states.

On the other hand, concurrent jurisdiction involved a situation where parties to the disputes are from different states but due to the nature of their cause of disputes, such as breach of contract done in a particular state. Party A can sue Party B in either of the federal or state courts.
