If you leave that to the courts, the outcome is quote apparent, and you get harvested, because you failed to state a claim.
No it starts before you enter a foreign vessel in dry dock. Who you are, where you are, is up to you. It is called identification and jurisdiction, and venue.
Yep .... there are ways to beat that ...
You mean where you ask the court 'which person' you are supposed to be?

Thanks for clarifying, I'm familiar with that, but most of the time people try they wind up just screwing themselves over.
Indeed they do.
But once jurisdiction is appreciated, it is possible to take it, and excert power.
Although I am in a different country than the US, we have found a way to make the court behave in a way we want.
And it is never about contents. Always jurisdiction and venue.
