898 F.2d 304 (1990)

Scott C. SAVIN, Appellee, v. Harry H. RANIER, Appellant.

United States Court of Appeals, Second Circuit.

Decided March 6, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Tom H. Pierce, Versailles, Ky., for appellant.

Anthony C. DeFilippis, Jr., Cohn & Birnbaum, P.C., Hartford, Conn. (Robert B. Shapiro, of counsel), for appellee.

Before OAKES, Chief Judge, and KEARSE and FLETCHER, Circuit Judges.


OAKES, Chief Judge:

Harry H. Ranier appeals an August 11, 1989, default judgment entered against him in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut, Jose A. Cabranes, Judge, on grounds that the district court lacked personal jurisdiction over him. We find that the district court's exercise of jurisdiction over defendant Ranier in this case was without statutory or constitutional basis, and accordingly reverse the judgment below.
