Frankly, we can't figure out who this is useful for unless you are going to be a litigator. Jurisdiction and evidence, with a focus on discovery and venue, are relevant in other legal areas, but they are usually better learned in those contexts than this one.

However, if your law school has an excellent professor of federal jurisdiction consider taking it. Understanding the rules of federal jurisdiction is vital for many areas of law, including intellectual property.
