Answer 1

The number 2 on the first page of the complaint establishes jurisdiction based on the Supreme Court's original jurisdiction. The complaint should include facts and allegations that demonstrate how the plaintiff suffered harm for establishing standing. The statement establishing jurisdiction on the summons can be found in the caption of the form where it mentions the court and jurisdiction.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to establish jurisdiction, the number 2 on the first page of the complaint establishes that the Supreme Court will have original jurisdiction in any case dealing with or affecting an Ambassador, Public Minister or Consul, or in which a state is a party. Regarding standing, there is no specific number on the first page of the complaint that establishes standing (the plaintiff suffering harm). However, the complaint should include facts and allegations that demonstrate how the plaintiff suffered harm. The clause in the complaint that establishes that the plaintiff is seeking relief (damages) can vary depending on the specific language used in the complaint. The statement establishing jurisdiction on the summons can be found in the caption of the form where it mentions the court and jurisdiction.
