Jay S. Siskind, Petitioners v. the Villa Foundation for Education, Inc., Respondents

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the Villa Foundation for Education, Inc. is amenable to suit in Texas because its advertising and contract activities constitute purposeful availment, the cause of action arises from those contacts, and fairness factors do not bar jurisdiction; the court reversed the appellate dismissal and remanded for trial. The individual employees were found not to have sufficient contacts, so the appellate dismissal as to them was affirmed.
