All responses must be APA compliant in every way.
Rubin owns and operates a florist business, Flower World, Inc., (Flower) from a shop in his Ohio hometown. Flower
World advertises and sells in Ohio from the shop, and advertises and sells over the internet. Using Flower’s website and
her credit card, on April 5, Louise purchased $5,000 worth of live wedding flowers from her home in Dallas, Texas. She
requested the flowers to be shipped to a hotel in Indiana, the site of the wedding, on April 15. The flowers arrived on
April 14, the day before the wedding, but Louise claimed they were withered and unusable.
Louise sued Flowers in a Texas court to recover her $5,000. Rubin, on behalf of Flowers, filed a motion to dismiss
claiming the Texas court has no jurisdiction.
1. Analyze and explain/justify your rationale: which court has jurisdiction to hear the case, and why? Can the case be
heard in Federal Court? Why or why not?
2. What is the legal basis for the court’s personal jurisdiction over Flowers (i.e., what type of personal jurisdiction
exists over Flowers)?
