"Does anyone know about violations of California law while arguing in a Delaware court?"

This is a concept known as "choice of law." Under certain circumstances a court in one state can apply the law of another state to the case before it.

From Google AI:

"Choice of law is a set of rules that determines which jurisdiction's laws apply in a lawsuit. It's also known as a conflict of laws. Choice of law is often used in lawsuits where the plaintiff and defendant are from different states, and the courts must decide which jurisdiction's laws to apply.

Choice of law can also refer to a contractual provision that selects a law to govern a contract. This is known as a choice-of-law clause or governing law clause. Choice-of-law clauses can help with settlement and reduce litigation costs by identifying the law that will apply to any disputes. They're often used by parties in different jurisdictions to ensure that no party has an advantage over the others.

In the United States, New York is the most popular choice for choice-of-law clauses in contracts, followed by California or Delaware. However, how choice-of-law clauses are interpreted can vary by forum. "

In the employee non-compete cases (which may be relevant) California has very strict laws voiding such clauses.
