If a state has a claim against a citizen of another state, the case will most likely be heard in the court system of the complaining state, unless the matter is criminal in nature, in which case the defendant (and only the defendant) may have the case removed to federal court.If the suit involves citizens of two different states, certain torts may be heard in the plaintiff's state court under "long-arm jurisdiction," while civil cases involving amounts of $75,000 or more may be heard in US District Court under federal "diversity jurisdiction."There may be instances in which none of the above apply.
