A more thorough explanation:

FORUM REI SITAE

Forum rei sitae is a Latin term that refers to a court where a dispute over a specific thing or subject matter is located. It is considered as a place of jurisdiction where legal proceedings can take place.

For example, if there is a dispute over a piece of land, the forum rei sitae would be the court located in the same jurisdiction as the land. Similarly, if there is a dispute over a contract, the forum rei sitae would be the court located in the same jurisdiction as the contract.

Another example would be if a person is injured in a car accident in a different state than where they live. The forum rei sitae would be the court located in the state where the accident occurred, as that is where the subject matter of the dispute (the accident) is situated.

These examples illustrate how the forum rei sitae is determined by the location of the subject matter in dispute. It is important to determine the correct forum rei sitae in order to ensure that legal proceedings take place in the appropriate jurisdiction.
