DISPUTES: Issues concerning the construction, validity, interpretation, and enforceability of these Assumption of Risk, Release and Waiver of Liability and Indemnity Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California and any lawsuits brought in connection herein shall be brought in a federal or state court residing in San Diego County, California.

Should there be a conflict between the laws of the State of California and any other laws, the conflict will be resolved in favor of the laws of the State of California.
