Arbitration is a form of settlement.

Which of the following cannot be done by a paralegal?

 In some instances, the first pleading filed in a lawsuit is called a petition.

Woo buys a new automobile. While driving the car home from the dealership, the brakes fail, the car crashes, and Woo is seriously injured. Woo retains the law firm of Kraft and Molina, and they file a lawsuit claiming damages for these injuries. Brady works as a paralegal in that law firm. Brady would be allowed to prepare a draft of the complaint to be filed in the action.

The U.S. Supreme Court has original jurisdiction for some matters.

Venue is a type of jurisdiction.

Stevens, a citizen of the state of Oklahoma, was involved in an automobile accident with Jackson, a citizen of the state of Alabama. Stevens is injured and wishes to sue. If the accident happened in Oklahoma, the state courts of Oklahoma could not exercise personal jurisdiction over Jackson because he is not a citizen of that state.
