The Nebraska Supreme Court affirmed the district court's summary judgment dismissing the negligence and loss‑of‑consortium claims against Shoemaker’s and E‑Titan as time‑barred under Pennsylvania law, and affirmed the dismissal of LG Chem America, Inc. for lack of personal jurisdiction. The court applied the Uniform Conflict of Laws Limitations Act and the Restatement (Second) of Conflict of Laws to determine the applicable law, and found LG Chem America’s contacts with Nebraska insufficient for specific jurisdiction.
