I linked to one of many resources on the internet that question whether the segregation of liabilities (under Texas LLC law) of a TX Series LLC that owns multiple real estate assets in New York would be followed by a NY judge presiding over a case involving NY real estate - and a New York judge would likely be the one to adjudicate a case involving NY real property.
