Court of Appeals of New York

In this medical malpractice action, dismissal for lack of personal jurisdiction against non-domiciliary defendants is affirmed, where: 1) defendants' contacts with New York are insufficient to confer long-arm jurisdiction under CPLR 302(a)(1); and 2) because plaintiff's suffered his injuries and underwent surgery outside of New York, section 302(a)(3) cannot serve as an alternative basis for personal jurisdiction over defendants.
