Recent Jurisdiction Developments In The New York Court Of Appeals, Jay C. Carlisle
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
This article will discuss recent developments in long-arm jurisdiction under CPLR section 302 and two related New York Court of Appeals decisions. Specifically, the article will address Fischbarg v.

Mahfouz, in which the court's decision to limit long-arm jurisdiction was rejected by subsequent legislation, signaling a more expansive application of CPLR 302 in the future.
