1Opinion of the Court
WATHEN, Justice.
Plaintiff Deidre Caluri appeals from an order of the Superior Court (Penobscot County, Beaulieu, J.) dismissing her complaint pursuant to M.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(2) for lack of personal jurisdiction over defendant, Neil Rypkema, d/b/a Laurel Hill Trucking Company. On appeal, plaintiff argues that by his conduct defendant should reasonably have anticipated litigation in Maine and that therefore jurisdiction over defendant comports with the due process clause of the United States Constitution. We agree with plaintiffs contention and vacate the Superior Court’s order.
