YA GLOBAL INVESTMENTS, L.P. v. JULIANN HACKETT CLIFF, ET AL.
A-3033-09T2 02-23-11
The trial judge correctly ruled as a matter of law that defendants, New York State residents with no contacts with New Jersey, were not parties to a contract signed by plaintiff and Seaway Valley Capital Corporation and thus were not bound by the contract's forum selection clause agreeing to suit in Hudson County, New Jersey. Discovery was not necessary to resolve the legal issue.
