Question

Jack grows up in Maryland. At eighteen he goes to a one-year program at a culinary school in Connecticut. When he arrives there, he has no idea what he will do or where he will go after he finishes. Halfway through, he is offered a job in Ohio when he finishes the program, and decides to take it. After he makes this decision, but before he moves to Ohio, Jack is domiciled in Maryland.

(A) True
(B) False

Answer 1

Jack is considered to be domiciled in Maryland despite attending a culinary school in Connecticut temporarily because his permanent residence and intention to return are still tied to Maryland until he moves to Ohio.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question you've asked pertains to the concept of domicile in law. Domicile is typically defined as the place where a person has their permanent primary residence to which they intend to return whenever they are absent. Based on the information provided, Jack's domicile remains in Maryland until he moves to Ohio because he has not yet established a residence in Connecticut where he is attending culinary school temporarily and he has yet to physically relocate to Ohio. Therefore, the statement 'Jack is domiciled in Maryland' is (A) True.
