Constitutional Mandate of Lex In Foro Loci Delicti

It is the writer's hypothesis that a state is constitutionally required to apply its own law to a travel tort which has occurred within its territorial jurisdiction and which is sued upon in its courts. In other words, the interest analysis test - application of the law of the state having the strongest interest in a particular issue - may not be used in foro loci delicti (in the forum of the place of the tort).
