Fraser v. Smith
Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit
Non-Argument Calendar.
1Opinion of the Court
KRAVITCH, Circuit Judge:
Charles Fraser died, and several of his family members suffered injuries, in a tragic explosion aboard the Sundance, a boat operated by J&B Tours in the Turks and Caicos Islands. Charles’s estate and his injured relatives sued J&B Tours and several other defendants in the Southern District of Florida, 1 asserting various common-law claims and a federal statutory claim under the Death on the High Seas Act (DOHSA), 46 U.S.C. §§ 30301-08. The Frasers appeal from the district court’s order dismissing their claims against J&B Tours for lack of personal jurisdiction.
