Question Presented (from Petition)

(1) Whether Walden v. Fiore, 571 U.S. 277 (2014)
nullifies Pennsylvania statute 42 Pa. C.S.A.
§ 5322(a)(7)(iv) and similar statutes and
rules from other jurisdictions—which asserts
personal jurisdiction over corporate directors
regarding a cause of action related to the person's directorship?

(2) Whether a defendant must legally support his
Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(2) motion by identifying
the specific legal basis that allegedly demonstrates lack of personal jurisdiction before the
burden shifts to a plaintiff to produce jurisdictional evidence in response to a Fed. R. Civ. P.
12(b)(2) motion.
