Description

The question posed is whether a Wyoming court can exercise personal jurisdiction over a parent corporation, KLS Enviro Resources, Inc. (KLS), and its sister corporation, Dateline Internacional, S.A. de C.V. (DIMSA), neither of which has the requisite minimum contacts with Wyoming, if a subsidiary corporation, Dateline Drilling, Inc. (Dateline), which has the requisite minimum contacts, is an alter ego of the parent or the sister. The district court had personal jurisdiction over Dateline, but ruled it lacked personal jurisdiction over KLS and DIMSA and dismissed the complaint against them filed by PanAmerican Mineral Services, Inc. (PanAmerican) to enforce arbitration. We hold that piercing the corporate veil between KLS and Dateline and Dateline and DIMSA affords personal jurisdiction over KLS and DIMSA as alter egos of Dateline. The order of the district court dismissing the case against KLS and DIMSA is reversed, and the case is remanded for further proceedings in accordance with this opinion.
