Yan Ping Cao runs a restaurant in San Francisco that makes especially good dumplings. She sells a large quantity of frozen dumplings to a local distributor, who re-sells them over the internet to consumers in 10 states. If a consumer in New York (one of those states) gets sick from the dumplings and sues Ms. Cao in New York, Ms. Cao
could challenge jurisdiction and get the NY case dismissed because she has not had any contacts with the state of New York and did not sell the product to the consumer.
would be required to answer, because she placed her products "in the stream of commerce" and can be sued in any state where the product ends up being purchased.
