Choice of Law

I’m uncomfortable with mandatory binding arbitration as well as choice of law statutes, but this just takes the cake.  Blackwater is trying to get a wrongful death claim tried under Sharia law, and I’m sure this is just a coincidence:

If the judge agrees, it would essentially end the lawsuit over a botched flight supporting the U.S. military. Shari’a law does not hold a company responsible for the actions of employees performed within the course of their work.
