This section contains the nature of the case and procedural background.

Flint (P) responded to an ad that Gust (D) placed in a magazine of general circulation. P ordered a truck from the ad. P had to file suit alleging that the ad was fraudulent and that D converted his funds and breached the contract for the truck order. P filed in Georgia under their long-arm statute alleging that the placement of the ad in the magazine of general circulation was enough to bring D within the ambit of the long arm statute. D filed a motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction. D got the motion and P appealed.
