1Opinion of the Court

WIENER, Circuit Judge:

Plaintiffs-Appellants Trent B. Latshaw and Latshaw Drilling and Exploration Company (“Latshaw Drilling”) appeal the district court’s dismissal of their breach of oral partnership/breach of oral joint venture agreement claim against Defendants-Appellees Henry E. Johnston and Feliciana Sand and Gravel Company, Inc. (“Feliciana”) for lack of personal jurisdiction. Concluding that the plaintiffs have established a prima facie showing of personal jurisdiction sufficient to avoid dismissal without a hearing, we reverse and remand.
