6.11 If the defendant chooses to challenge the jurisdiction of the Australian court, it can argue not only that the matter is beyond the power of the court but also that the court should, in its discretion, refuse to hear the matter on the ground that the Australian forum is clearly inappropriate (forum non conveniens).[cclxxxii] Another strategy open to the defendant (depending on the laws of its own jurisdiction) is to commence proceedings in its own jurisdiction seeking a remedy against the plaintiff by seeking an order from a court in its own jurisdiction prohibiting the plaintiff from continuing its proceedings in Australia (ie, an anti-suit injunction') or a favourable declaration which would negative any rights over property sought by the plaintiff in the Australian forum.
