1968 U.S. App. LEXIS 5050

Hermetic Seal Corporation v. Savoy Industries, Inc.

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

Appellant’s suit against Savoy Industries, Inc. (Industries) was dismissed below for lack of jurisdiction over the person. We affirm.

In its attempt to bring Industries within the jurisdiction of the district court Hermetic relied upon three of Florida’s long arm statutes, Florida Statutes 47.16, 47.17(1) and 47.171, F.S.A.

Following an evidentiary hearing, the trial court granted Industries’ Motion to Dismiss for lack of jurisdiction. That *776 decision is reported at 290 F.Supp. 240. We conclude that the case was correctly-decided below, for the reasons there set forth.

Affirmed.
