Case Synopsis
The Nevada Supreme Court held that the “effects test” from Calder v. Jones applies only to intentional torts and was therefore inapplicable to the negligence claims in this case. Nevertheless, the Court affirmed dismissal for lack of personal jurisdiction because Greyhound’s alleged negligence did not arise from its contracts with Nevada.
