Keeping in view that an online retailer based in New Hampshire is suing one of its Ohio-based competitors and allegedly, the competitor sent out false advertisements stating that the Ohio retailer was not properly safeguarding customers' private financial information.

A State Supreme Court  would most likely have jurisdiction over this case

Answer 2

A state supreme court is the one that will be responsible to have the jurisdiction case.

This case will go the state supreme to proceed further with the allegation against the competitor done by a retailer that is based in New Hampshire.

The state supreme will be able to give their verdict on the case easily.
