How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- noting that websites which specifically target Connecticut residents may also further support an exercise of personal jurisdiction here
- holding one sale by manufacturer of allegedly infringing product, totaling $246, to a single unsolicited buyer in forum state did not satisfy the minimum contacts requirement for the exercise of specific jurisdiction
- noting that the defendant’s contact with the forum was not caused by its “promotion, advertising, or sales activities,” but by the plaintiff hiring a third party to purchase the defendant’s product
- describing additional conduct of defendant that might indicate intent to serve market in the forum state
- declining to exercise jurisdiction based on defendant’s website that permitted users to email representatives with questions or comments, finding the website to be “similar to an advertisement in a national magazine or newspaper”
