Re: Personal Injury
No. The lawsuit brought against you in New York is presumably grounded in an accident that occurred here. A North Carolina court would not have jurisdiction over a New York construction accident involving New York companies, New York witnesses and a New York injured worker. Best, M. E. Zuller
