Federal judge in Florida says Trump Twitter case must be heard in California

Miami-based U.S. District Judge Robert Scola Jr. ruled that Trump agreed to be bound by Twitter’s terms of service in 2009 when he created his @realdonaldtrump handle while he was a private citizen. Those terms include a so-called “forum selection clause” requiring that suits against the San Francisco-based company be brought to federal court in northern California. Scola, an Obama appointee, rejected Trump’s claim that his position as a sitting president should exempt him from that requirement. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/578710-federal-judge-in-florida-says-trump-twitter-case-must-be-heard-in
