Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

If the defendant has sufficient minimum contacts in the forum state, a court will likely find that there is no violation of the Due Process Clause for the court to exercise jurisdiction. Courts apply a sliding scale for website owners and operators, and generally hold that a passive website for advertising along does meet the requirements for minimum contacts. A court will more likely exercise personal jurisdiction over an interactive website where the defendants purposely avails themselves of the forum state and exercise of personal jurisdiction would be reasonable and fair.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
