Ex Parte City Boy's Tire and Brake, Inc. (in Re Claudia Dabbieri v. City Boy's Tire and Brake, Inc.)

Summary

The Alabama Supreme Court granted City Boy’s Tire and Brake’s petition for a writ of mandamus, holding that the trial court erred in denying its motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction. The Court found that CBT’s single, isolated sale to an Alabama resident did not constitute purposeful availment of Alabama’s courts, and therefore specific jurisdiction was unavailable.
