- holding that Florida law provides that the debtor must seek the creditor and so a breach of contract based on failure to pay occurs where the creditor is domiciled
- contract with Florida resident to furnish consulting services in an unspecified location insufficient to establish personal jurisdiction
- “[W]here there is an express promise to pay and the contract does not state a place of payment, the debtor must seek the creditor and thus the breach occurs where the creditor is domiciled.”
