Supreme Court Issues Two Personal Jurisdiction Decisions – Both Products Liability Cases

The Supreme Court issued its decisions in Nicastro and Goodyear.  Coverage at the civil procedure and federla courts blog and more to come.

The bottom line: no revolution in the doctrine of personal jurisdiction – its as messy as ever.  I have really enjoyed reading the decisions, however, and am looking forward to teaching them.  Goodyear is a particularly masterful opinion in terms of clear and concise writing.
