In order for a court to assume jurisdiction in a dispute for breach of contract involving an Internet transaction, there must be a real and substantial connection between the transaction and the jurisdiction in which the court is located.

The other choices, such as the defendant having assets or residing within the jurisdiction, or the contract containing a jurisdiction clause, may be relevant factors in determining whether the court has jurisdiction, but they are not sufficient on their own. The plaintiff's location is also generally not relevant to determining jurisdiction.
