Connecting factorsContracts. In the conflict of law, connecting factors, or contacts, are facts which tend to connect a transaction or occurrence with a particular law or jurisdiction (e.g. the domicile, residence, nationality or place of incorporation of the parties; the place(s) of conclusion or performance of the contract; the place(s) where the tort or delict was committed or where its harm was felt; the flag or country of registry of the ship; the shipowner's base of operations, etc.).
RELATED TERMS--------------------------------------
Conflict
The opposition or difference between two judicial jurisdictions, when they both claim the right to decide a cause, or where they both declare their incompetency.
Law

Transaction
Contracts, civil law. An agreement between two or more persons, who for the purpose of preventing or putting an end to a law-suit, adjust their differences by mutual consent, in the manner which they agree on; in Louisiana this contract must be reduced to writing.
Jurisdiction
Practice. A power constitutionally conferred upon a judge or magistrate, to take cognizance of, and decide causes according to law, and to carry his sentence into execution. The tract of land or district within which a judge or magistrate has jurisdiction, is called his territory, and his power in relation to his territory is called his territorial jurisdiction.
Domicile
The place at which a person has physical presence, which that person regards as home, and to which that person intends to return and remain even though currently residing elsewhere. The concept of domicile includes the concept of place and the concept of a settled connection with the place.

Residence
The place of one's domicil. There is a difference between a man's residence and his domicil. He may have his domicil in Philadelphia, and still he may have a residence in New York; for although a man can have but one domicil, he may have several residences. A residence is generally tran-sient in its nature, it becomes a domicil when it is taken up animo manendi.
Nationality
The state of a person in relation to the nation in which he was born.
Place
Pleading, evidence. A particular portion of space; locality.

The union of one domain to another.
Parties
Contracts. Those persons who engage themselves to do, or not to do the matters and things contained in an agreement.
Conclusion

Performance

Contract
A negotiated oral or written agreement setting forth the terms for an exchange of value between parties (which may be individuals or companies) and under which each party promises to perform an obligation.

Tort
An injury; a wrong; hence the expression an executor de son tort, of his own wrong.
Delict
Civil law. The act by which one person, by fraud or malignity, causes some damage or tort to some other. In its most enlarged sense, this term includes all kinds of crimes and misdemeanors, and even the injury which has been caused by another, either voluntarily or accidentally without evil intention; but more commonly by delicts are understood those small offences which are punislied by a small fine or a short imprisonment.
Country
By country is meant the state of which one is a member.
Registry
A book authorized by law, in which writings are registered or recorded.
Ship
This word, in its most enlarged sense, signifies a vessel employed in navigation; for example, the terms the ship's papers, the ship's hushand, shipwreck, and the like, are employed whether the vessel referred to be a brig, a sloop, or a three-masted vessel.
