Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida
Small claims court
I bought an item on ebay that was misrepresented by the seller as new. I want to take him to small claims court. My question is do I file in my state or his?

Re: Small claims court
You can probably file in either state, but I would have to research the issue and review appellate court decisions relating to disputes between parties conducting business on-line to definitively answer this jurisdictional question. My office does not perform legal research unless we are formally retained by a client. Good luck.
