How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that if the plaintiff had requested jurisdictional discovery in responding to defendant’s motion to dismiss, he would not be entitled to it because he “did not make a threshold prima facie showing of personal jurisdiction”
- finding no personal jurisdiction where the plaintiff failed to present evidence or “actual proofs” to support his allegation that the defendant conducted business in Pennsylvania
- “While a defendant can waive his objection to personal jurisdiction by failing to raise it in a timely manner . . . removal to federal court does not constitute such a waiver.”
