In Meritage Hospitality Group, Inc. v. North Am. Elite Ins. Co., 2021 NY Slip Op 50700(U), the Court held that a contract clause stating that the parties "irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of the State of New York, and to the extent permitted by law, the parties expressly waive all rights to challenge or otherwise limit such jurisdiction" was insufficient to constitute a waiver of the right to challenge venue because venue refers to the actual location of the court at which the lawsuit will be litigated. In contrast, "jurisdiction" refers to the power and authority of the Court to decide the issues raised in the lawsuit.
