When drawing up a contract,why is it important to state the geographical jurisdiction in which the contract?

Question

takes place?

A-It will prevent travel inconvenience for the client in the event of a dispute.
B-The contract won't be valid unless this is stand.
C-It's necessary for tax registration.
D-It defines the responsibility for goods out on consignment.

Answer 1

None of the above

Answer 2

I'm neither a lawyer nor have I taken law courses, but I would say the common-sense answer (which is not a reliable guide to legal matters, unfortunately) would be answer B: The contract won't be valid unless this is STATED (not stand). Here's why I think so: different places have different laws and the contractual obligations in one place might not be considered binding in another jurisdiction.
Answer A is nonsense; what lawyer ever cared about the convenience of a client? (Sorry, that's cynical. But I've never heard of a contract being drawn in such a way as to make its contents convenient);
Answer C is possible (and may be the right answer) because any number of government agencies would be interested in the tax consequences of a contract. However, when 2 parties, neither of which represents a govt agency, make a contract, their respective lawyers will certainly take note of the tax consequences and do whatever registration processes are demanded by local authority;
Answer D does not seem likely to me, although I can imagine situations in which 1 party might like to make contractual obligations about consignment goods clear to the other party.

If this is a test or homework question, I think your teacher expects that you can either find or infer the answer from your text or lecture notes. It seems fairly straightforward.
Good luck!
