CMMC v. SALINAS

No. 95-0954.

929 S.W.2d 435 (1996)

CMMC, Petitioner, v. Ambrocio SALINAS, Respondent.

Supreme Court of Texas.

Decided July 12, 1996.

Rehearing Overruled October 18, 1996.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael W. Eady, Austin, for Petitioner.

William W. McNeal, Lockhart, for Respondent.


HECHT, Justice, delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court.

The sole question in this case is whether the Fourteenth Amendment permits a state court to take personal jurisdiction over a foreign manufacturer merely because it knew its allegedly defective product would be shipped to that state. We answer no, and thus reverse the judgment of the court of appeals, 903 S.W.2d 138, and affirm the judgment of the trial court.
