How have the courts interpreted the italicized phrase "choosing a choice of law" in the context of a contract?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from PNC Bank v. Sterba (In re Sterba), 852 F.3d 1175 (9th Cir. 2016):

1 The majority completely ignores this italicized phrase in its analysis, noting only that "[t]he contractual choice-of-law provision in this case, adopting Ohio law, is materially identical to the one we construed in Des Brisay." Maj. Op. at 1178. But, of course, the choice-of-law provision at issue in Des Brisay did not include a provision like or comparable to the italicized phrase quoted in the text, above. See Des Brisay v. Goldfield Corp., 637 F.2d 680, 682 (9th Cir. 1981).
