How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that the existence of a website visible in the forum that gives information about a company and its products is not enough, without more, to subject a defendant to general jurisdiction
- holding “operat[ing] a website accessible to Maine residents,” among other things “fell ‘well below the levels of contacts that have previously been found insufficient to support general jurisdiction’”
- “These four stray references to New Hampshire on MMC’s website do not indicate that MMC intentionally uses its website to target New Hampshire residents.”
- “Corporate registration . . . adds some weight to the jurisdictional analysis[.]”
