Question:
Lemon Inc. is a company registered in the U.K. which produces computers and has a call center registered in the Republic of H to address complaints associated with its computer products. The standard terms attached to the computers specify that for any deficiencies in the product, the courts of England would have exclusive jurisdiction, while the courts in the Republic of H would have exclusive jurisdiction over any complaints associated with aftersales service. Ms. Distressed buys a Lemon computer in London that has a problem after the warranty period has expired. The call center provides her with instructions that lead to the computer ceasing to function completely. She sues Lemon Inc. in a London court, arguing that the Republic of H has very low standards of consumer protection and the forum clause in the contract was "unfair." What should the court decide? Discuss.
