Zac Smith & Company, Inc., Petitioner v. Otis Elevator Company, Respondent

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Appeals, holding that Zac Smith & Company, Inc. had sufficient contacts with Texas to satisfy due process and the Texas long‑arm statute, and remanded the case for trial on the merits. Justice Robertson dissented, arguing that Smith's contacts were too attenuated to support personal jurisdiction.
