Brem v. The Weinstein Co.
In this proceeding, the trial court concluded it lacked personal jurisdiction over foreign nonresident defendant Bridgestone Cycle Co., Ltd. (Bridgestone Japan) and on two successive occasions granted defendant’s motions to quash service of summons. Plaintiff appeals from the second order. In that order, the trial court found Bridgestone Japan (1) had not been served with the summons and (2) lacked minimum contacts with California. Plaintiff disputes only the second finding. Although plaintiff’s failure to dispute the first finding dooms her appeal, we nevertheless reach the minimum contacts issue, concluding plaintiff failed to show that Bridgestone Japan’s contacts with California subject it to jurisdiction. We thus affirm the trial court’s order.
