Chicas v. Bayerische Motoren Werke AG et al., D-101-cv-2018-03023 (N.M. Dist. Ct. Dec. 26, 2019)

Chicas v. Bayerische Motoren Werke AG et al., D-101-cv-2018-03023 (N.M. Dist. Ct. Dec. 26, 2019)

 

DP&S assisted trial counsel Hossley & Embry in prevailing on a motion to dismiss filed by Defendant Bayerische Motoren Werke, AG (“BMW AG”).  BMW AG argued that it could not be subject to jurisdiction in New Mexico as a German entity lacking substantial contacts with the United States and New Mexico in particular.  After two hearings and two rounds of legal briefs, the Court held that BMW AG was subject to specific personal jurisdiction in New Mexico’s courts and denied BMW AG’s motion to dismiss.
