In the Interest of S.A v. and K.E v. Minor Children

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the Texas trial court could exercise jurisdiction to modify the Minnesota divorce decree on child support, visitation expense, custody, and visitation, affirming the appellate court in part and reversing it in part, and remanded for further consideration of the father's challenges. Justice Gonzalez dissented, arguing Minnesota had not declined jurisdiction and that the father's contacts were insufficient for personal jurisdiction, while Justice Hecht concurred in part and dissented in part, agreeing on custody jurisdiction but questioning personal jurisdiction over support.
