Question: Hansel's Canned Herring, Inc. advertises, markets, distributes, and sells Hansel's herring products in all 50 states. Hansel's is incorporated and has its principal place of business in Maine. Ethel, a Virginia resident, purchases a can of Hansel's at a store in Portland, Maine, where she was visiting relatives, used it in a picnic dish she made, and became deadly ill eating the product, with medical expenses in excess of $100,000. Ethel recovers, returns to Virginia, and files suit in a Virginia federal court. As such:
- Hansel's can dismiss the case because the court lacks subject matter jurisdiction.
- Hansel's can remove the case to state court in Norfolk.
- Hansel's can obtain a dismissal of the case because the court lacks jurisdiction over Hansel's person.
- None of the above are options for Hansel's.
