| dc.description.abstract | This research provides an overview of the impact of forum non conveniens on consumer protection laws in Oregon. It includes a hypothetical case where a consumer cannot seek justice in their home state due to a forum selection clause and the application of the forum non conveniens doctrine. The report discusses the jurisdictional requirements of Oregon courts, the Oregon Unlawful Trade Practices Act (OR UTPA), and the private cause of action, which allows individuals to seek justice when the government cannot provide it. The report also examines the federal and Oregon standards for applying the forum non conveniens doctrine. It proposes solutions to prevent abuses related to forum selection clauses, ensuring that the doctrine is used fairly and aligns with legislative intent. | en_US |
