trying to make sense of my outlines
1) In Statutory Interpleader, Personal Jurisdiction is proper anywhere in U.S.
2) Venue is proper in district any claimant resides
Consider this ex:
Stakeholder State A
potential claimants states B, C & D
Stakeholder files in Fed State A
________________________________________
How can jurisdiction be proper but venue improper? what rule am I missing? (is the stakeholder considered claimant for venue purposes?)

Re: statutory interpleader jurisdiction
figuring out a question from adaptibar - don't have the exact text. q was asking for proper jurisdiction but I got it wrong because I was confused as to venue. Now I see elsewhere that so long as jurisdiction is proper venue may be where any claimant resides - this is for statutory interpleader.myrtlewinston wrote:Can you post the excerpt verbatim?
I was confused since generally, venue is proper where any D resides (where all Ds same state) or where substantial part of claim arose or property located.
