Civil Procedure--Jurisdiction--The West Virginia Long-Arm Statute, John A. Rollins

West Virginia Law Review

In 1957 the West Virginia legislature enacted a statute which provides that in certain instances foreign corporations would be deemed to be doing business in this state for the purpose of service of process. In enacting this "long-arm" statute, West Virginia joined many other states in taking advantage of the United States Supreme Court's decisions that expanded the extent to which states could exercise personal jurisdiction over nonresidents within the limits of due process. However, upon comparing the jurisdiction afforded by the West Virginia statute to that exercised under other long-arm statutes, it becomes apparent that this state has taken …

Most casebooks on general procedure published in recent years emphasize their concentration upon the Federal Rules: Vanderbilt's Cases on Modern Procedure and Judicial Administration, Field and Kaplan's Materials on Civil Procedure, Brown, Vestal and Ladd's Cases and Materials on Pleading and Procedure, to mention only a few. And when older casebooks, like Scott and Simpson's Cases and Other Materials on Civil Procedure or Clark's Cases on Modern …
