MELISSA GROO, Petitioner, v. MONTANA ELEVENTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT, HON. AMY EDDY, Presiding Respondent.
ORDER
Petitioner and Defendant Melissa Groo seeks a writ of supervisory control over the Montana Eleventh Judicial District Court in Cause No. DV-22-087(A) to reverse that court's Order denying Groo's motion to dismiss on the basis of lack of personal jurisdiction. Groo maintains the District Court erred in concluding it could exercise personal jurisdiction over Groo in this matter.
Having reviewed the Petition and the challenged Order, this Court deems it appropriate to obtain a summary response. Therefore, in accordance with M. R. App. P. 14(7), IT IS ORDERED that the Eleventh Judicial District Court, and Plaintiffs Triple D Game Farm, Inc. a/k/a Triple D Wildlife, Lorney "Jay" Deist, and Kimberly Deist, or both, are granted to and including November 18, 2022, to prepare, file, and serve a response to the petition for writ of supervisory control in Cause No. DV-22-087(A).
The Clerk is directed to provide immediate notice of this Order to counsel for Petitioner, all counsel of record in the Eleventh Judicial District Court Cause No. DV-22-087(A), and to the Honorable Amy Eddy, presiding District Judge. 1
