Hotfoot Logistics, LLC, and Freight Ambulance, LLC, Appellants v. Shipping Point Marketing, Inc.; David Fishgold…

Summary

The court held that Arkansas courts may exercise personal jurisdiction over Shipping Point Marketing and the Fishgolds because their transaction with an Arkansas company created sufficient minimum contacts connected to the claims. The court emphasized the Arkansas contract, the Arkansas-based employees and equipment involved in performance, the direct relationship between the contacts and the cause of action, and Arkansas's interest in providing a forum. It reversed the summary judgment and remanded for further proceedings.
