“' "the conduct from which that inference is drawn must be sufficient to support the conclusion that the parties expressed a mutual manifestation of an intent to enter into an agreement.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“[w]hen the underlying facts are undisputed, the existence of personal jurisdiction is a matter of law.[ 1 ] Eddy v. Oukrop, 784 P.2d 610, 612 (Wyo.1989). If the district court’s determination is made without an evidentiary hearing, the plaintiff must show only a prima facie case to defeat the motion to dismiss. Robinson v. U-Haul Intern., Inc., 929 P.2d 1236, 1238 (Wyo.1997) (quoting PanAmerican Mineral Services, Inc. v. KLS Enviro Resources, Inc., 916 P.2d 986, 989 (Wyo.1996)); Amoco Production Co. v. EM Nominee Partnership Co., 886 P.2d 266, 267 (Wyo.1994). The district court must view the allegations in the pleadings and documentary evidence in the light most favorable to the non-moving party, resolving all reasonable inferences in favor of the non-moving party. Pelchat v. Sterilite Corp., 931 F.Supp. 939, 943 (D.N.H.1996); Neways, Inc. v. McCausland, 950 P.2d 420, 422 (Utah 1997).”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“The exercise of personal jurisdiction over a defendant is statutorily authorized on any basis consistent with the Wyoming and United States Constitutions. Wyo. Stat. § 5-l-107(a) (1997). Due process requires that the defendant have “ ‘minimum contacts’ ” with the forum state such that the exercise of jurisdiction does not offend “ ‘traditional notions of fair play and substantial justice.’” Amoco Production Co., 886 P.2d at 267 (quoting International Shoe Co. v. State of Wash., Office of Unemployment Compensation and Placement, 326 U.S. 310, 316 , 66 S.Ct. 154, 158 , 90 L.Ed. 95 (1945)). In determining the limits of personal jurisdiction based on a single act, we apply the three-part test articulated in First Wyoming Bank, N.A., Rawlins v. Trans Mountain Sales and Leasing, Inc., 602 P.2d 1219, 1221 (Wyo.1979) (quoting Van Schaack & Co. v. District Court, Eighteenth J.D., 189 Colo. 145 , 538 P.2d 425, 426 (1975) and State ex rel. White Lumber Sales, Inc. v. Sulmonetti, 252 Or. 121 , 448 P.2d 571, 574 (1968)): “ ‘First, the defendant must purposefully avail himself of the privilege of acting in the forum state or of causing important consequences in that state. Second, the cause of action must arise from the consequences in the forum state of the defendant’s activities. Finally, the activities of the defendant or the consequences of those activities must have a substantial enough connection with the forum state to make the exercise of jurisdiction over the defendant reasonable.”
