Summary

The court held that Arizona may exercise specific personal jurisdiction over LMMP, Holmes, and Smith because their purposeful communications and contractual dealings with Arizona entities created sufficient minimum contacts related to the claims. It held that Arizona lacked jurisdiction over Evers and Integrated Resources because neither engaged in conduct purposefully directed at Arizona. The court affirmed dismissal as to Evers and Integrated Resources, reversed dismissal as to LMMP, Holmes, and Smith, vacated the court of appeals' opinion, and remanded.
