Buskirk v. Buskirk

Holding

The court held that California courts possessed case‑linked personal jurisdiction over the mother, her Idaho‑resident daughters, and her brother because each defendant had purposefully availed themselves of California’s statutory and common‑law benefits through the creation, administration, and ongoing litigation of a California‑governed trust that continues to own California real‑property interests; consequently, the trial court’s dismissal for lack of jurisdiction was reversed. ---
