Rashid A. Buttar v. Rachan Damidi Reddy

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, No. 20-1633 · judgment June 24, 2022


Certiorari denied · October 17, 2022
Pre-decision estimate: 5% cert probability

Before the decision, roughly the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for a circuit split argued in the petition, a petition filed soon after the judgment below, and counsel who has filed here before.

Question presented

Whether the District Court of North Carolina had personal jurisdiction over Petitioner after Petitioner moved to another country and the contacts which remained are enough to establish personal jurisdiction. Whether the District Court of North Carolina had subject-matter jurisdiction under the New York Convention after Petitioner alleged a fraudulent arbitration agreement.

Counsel of record
