A Plaintiff filed suit in the U.S. after he suffered catastrophic injuries while working on a high voltage power line. The Plaintiff was employed by a power company and was performing maintenance work on the high voltage line. He alleged that he used a defective voltmeter to test the line and that the voltmeter showed that no power was present in the line when in fact the line was still under full power due to the Plaintiff’s failure to properly depower the line. Josh Yeager represented a Taiwanese company that manufactured the voltmeter that was being used by the Plaintiff. Mr. Yeager filed a motion to dismiss, arguing that the court could not constitutionally assert personal jurisdiction over his client based on the mere fact that his client placed the voltmeter into the stream of commerce in the U.S. The trial court denied the motion. However, on an interlocutory appeal, the appellate court reversed the trial court’s decision and entered a dismissal of Mr. Yeager’s client based on lack of personal jurisdiction.
