I'm totally not an expert, furthermore I'm not a lawyer either... I just
like this discussion.
So... (hypothetically) if it's legal for someone under the age of 16 in
Montana to call a 900 number. Would it be legal for a 16 year old to
call (from Arizona) a 900 Number in Montana?
Not that this is exactly the same thing...but we are trying to decide
which laws take precedent. I'm sure if you filled the complaint in the
State of Arizona against a business in Arizona who was breaking Arizona
Laws but doing it through another office in a another state, the case
would still have precedent in Arizona.
Now if they counter sue you in Montana that will be left up to the
Montana courts. Can they even counter sue from another venue? I would be
willing to bet that they can only counter from the original state. But
keep in mind you can sue anyone for anything. It's up to the judge if he
will hear you or not.
From all the T.V. that I've watch usually states don't mix their legal
battles unless it's a really big deal.
