Reynolds Frizzell LLP successfully obtained the dismissal of a lawsuit involving a partnership dispute against its client, a resident of Puerto Rico.  The two Plaintiffs, Raiden Commodities, LP, and Aspire Commodities, LP, had asserted claims for conversion and misappropriation of trade secrets. The Plaintiffs also sought a declaratory judgment regarding the relationship between them and the defendant.

Attorneys Chris Reynolds and Cory Liu filed a special appearance in the case, Raiden Commodities, LP vs. Patrick de Man, before Judge Kyle Carter of the 125th District Court in Harris County.  At the conclusion of oral argument on February 17, 2017, Judge Carter granted their client’s special appearance and dismissed all claims against him for lack of personal jurisdiction.
