The minimum contacts analysis requires a review of any contacts by Mr. Bordynuik with the state of Florida. See Consolidated Energy, Inc. v. Strumor, 920 So. 2d 829, 832 (Fla. 4th DCA 2006). A review of the Complaint establishes that Plaintiff has alleged no facts to establish any contacts between Mr. Bordynuik and Florida.
The Complaint clearly states that Mr. Bordynuik is a resident of Ontario, Canada and that he is the CEO and President of JBI, a Nevada corporation with a principal place of business in Cambridge, Massachusetts.3 (Complaint, irs 3,4) However, the Plaintiffs Complaint contains no allegation of acts committed by Mr. Bordynuik in Florida. Further, the Plaintiff has not alleged the existence of activities or conduct that Mr. Bordynuik purposefully directed to the state of Florida. Given the absence of such allegations, the Plaintiff has failed to establish that Mr. Bordynuik has purposefully availed himself of the jurisdiction of the courts of Florida or that Mr. Bordynuik should reasonably have anticipated being hailed into court in Florida. Therefore, the Plaintiff has failed to meet its burden that Mr. Bordynuik maintains sufficient minimum contacts with the state of Florida.
