eBay sues Craigslist as family squabble goes public

@ben edwards

Many US companies incorporate in Delaware - especially California ones. Its to do with the state's preferential tax treatment for earnings. I believe Nevada and Washinton state are the other 2 common ones but I could be wrong.

Anyway, you have to sue the company where its incorporated, so a lot of these things go to court in Delaware. (Now I think about it, quite a few must use Texas too since thats another place where lawsuites are commonly homed).

Paris since she's probably confused by this too.

Birthplace of Silicon Valley in shambles

A Shame

I drive past there at least once a week. The whole area is slowly being redeveloped. The large shopping center next door is about to undergo a fairly extensive Retro-fit with Sears being replaced by the MOA-Home Depots.

(And as an aside, a Burger King is unlikely as there are both a BK and McD's within about 200 yds of that site - the BK is, IIRC owned by an ex-49ers player).
