Trell v. American Ass'n for the Advancement of Science

Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit

Decided February 18, 2009No. 07-2656-cvPublished

1Opinion of the Court

SUMMARY ORDER

Erik Trell appeals from a May 18, 2007 memorandum and order of the district court granting appellees American Association of the Advancement of Science (“AAAS”), ScienceNOW, and Dana Mackenzie’s motion to dismiss Trell’s amended complaint. We assume the parties’ familiarity with the facts, proceedings below, and the issues raised on appeal.

We affirm the district court’s dismissal of the complaint as against Mackenzie for lack of personal jurisdiction because Trell, by not arguing this issue on appeal, has waived it. See Norton v. Sam’s Club, 145 F.3d 114, 117 (2d Cir.1998).
