Bell Nunnally Partner Kartik R. Singapura and Senior Associate Joshua D. Fuller recently secured an appellate victory in the case of Cimiano v. Halberstam; No. 02-23-00127-cv in the Court of Appeals, Second Appellate District of Texas at Fort Worth. The appellate court’s decision resulted in the dismissal of the clients from the lawsuit on the grounds of lack of personal jurisdiction.

In Cimiano v. Halberstam, the plaintiffs had sued the out-of-state residents for fraudulent transfer. The defendants, represented by Bell Nunnally, filed a special appearance, arguing that the trial court lacked jurisdiction over their persons. The court of appeals affirmed the trial court’s decision in the client’s favor on the special appearance in all respects.
