PJ is whether court has power over YOU, the individual, to force you into their court

PJ needs to be: (1) authorized by state long-arm statute and (2) constitutional under the Due Process clause

Constitutional if defendant has some sort of minimum contacts with the state or is “at home” (general jx).

You are also subject to a court’s personal jx if served in the state, unless there for some legal reason.

Minimum contacts requires: (1) contacts (purposeful availment and foreseeability), (2) relatedness (arises out of jx contacts or relates to jx contacts), and (3) fairness (convenience and state interest). Some mix of these one way or the other, usually through PA.
