This paper presents a formal model of specific reasoning patterns in conflict of laws (CoL). CoL arises when multiple countries have jurisdiction due to the diverse nationalities of the involved factors. When initiating legal action in one country, the question of which country’s substantial law to apply emerges, possibly involving the CoL regulations of other countries (in cases of transmission and renvoi). Moreover, parties contemplating legal action in a case falling under CoL often engage in a deliberation process known as forum shopping: determining which country’s CoL regulations would result in the most favorable outcome for them. Our model integrates deontic logic (specifically Input/Output logic) with proof theory and formal argumentation techniques to model both types of reasoning.
