C. Al Buis v. DLI Assets Bravo, LLC
In a suit on a loan guaranty, can specific personal jurisdiction be involuntarily created over an out-of-state guarantor based solely on a co-defendant's consent, for itself, to a forum-selection consent clause in its two-party borrower agreement with the lender, when the guarantor did not negotiate or sign the co-defendant's borrower agreement nor sign or approve the defendant's alleged guaranty agreement, which guaranty had no forum consent clause itself and did not reference the forum consent clause in the borrower agreement?
