         Typically, the parties to a contract can specify which law and 
jurisdiction apply.  However, before a contract is in place, complex 
jurisdictional legal rules may prevail.  Although it's in a different 
context (copyright, not domain name, issues), see for example: "Conflict of 
Laws Issues in International Copyright Cases,"
