Solution

failed
failed
Answer

The answer is choice-of-law

Explanation
Option 1: in rem jurisdiction

In rem jurisdiction refers to the power a court has over property within its territory. It is not relevant to specifying which law will apply to resolve disputes under a contract.

Option 2: removal

Removal refers to the transfer of a case from one court to another, typically from state court to federal court. It does not pertain to specifying applicable law in a contract.

Option 3: change-of-law

Change-of-law is not a standard legal term used in contracts to specify applicable law. It generally refers to a legislative or judicial change in the law itself.

Option 4: choice-of-law

A choice-of-law clause in a contract specifies which jurisdiction's laws will govern the interpretation and enforcement of the contract. This is the correct term for the clause that Trailers $4 U$ would use to specify the applicable law for resolving disputes.

Option 5: venue

Venue refers to the geographic location where a case is heard. While related to jurisdiction, it does not specify which law will apply to the contract.
