A more thorough explanation:

Venue Facts

Venue facts are the facts that need to be established during a hearing to determine whether a court has the proper jurisdiction to hear a case.

• The location where the incident occurred
• The location where the defendant resides or does business
• The location where the contract was signed

For example, if a car accident occurred in California, but the defendant lives in New York, the court needs to determine if it has the proper jurisdiction to hear the case. The location where the incident occurred and where the defendant resides are both venue facts that need to be established.
