Court of Appeals of Minnesota.

Review Granted May 31, 1995.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

James G. Birnbaum, Michael J. Colgan, Davis, Birnbaum, Marcou, Seymour & Colgan, La Crosse, WI, for appellant.

Brian N. Johnson, Sheila T. Kerwin, Popham, Haik, Schnobrich & Kaufman, Ltd., Minneapolis, for respondent.

Considered and decided by KALITOWSKI, P.J., SHORT and MULALLY, JJ.


OPINION

KALITOWSKI, Judge.

V.H. sued the estate of her deceased father for damages arising from alleged sexual abuse occurring when she was a minor child. The district court dismissed the action for lack of personal jurisdiction, concluding that under Minnesota's survival statute V.H.'s cause of action was against the decedent's personal representative, who did not have sufficient contacts with Minnesota to establish personal jurisdiction.
