FERNANDEZ, Circuit Judge:

Banque Internationale a Luxembourg S.A. ("BIL") appeals the district court's orders summarily holding it in contempt1 and assessing sanctions against it in the amount of $2,680,417.30. BIL argues that the district court had neither subject matter nor personal jurisdiction over it. Because we agree that the district court lacked personal jurisdiction over BIL, we reverse.
