Hillary Gould · Answer 1

Carlos was a resident of Ohio, not Michigan.

Explanation:

In this particular case, the location of the incident will determine the type of jurisdiction. If there is a case with someone from a different state in another state, the best option is to move the case to the federal district court. If the victim does not reside in a different state, the case could be moved from a federal court to a state court.
