How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding court could not consider “contentions concerning] the merits of [plaintiffs] cause of action rather than the minimum contacts requisite to personal jurisdiction”
• noting fact that Texas-based plaintiff’s asset was located in Oregon was factor attenuating Oregon-based defendant’s Texas availment
• “[AJppellant’s ‘availing’ was for the purpose of building its restaurants in Kansas, not for reaping a profit or obtaining a benefit or advantage in Texas.”
• “[W]e believe the purposeful-availment analysis should not turn on the fortuity of where the Texas resident was physically located when the defendant e-mailed the contract or when the defendants made allegedly actionable misrepresentations by e-mail.”
