Evans v. Thornton

This is an appeal of a non-final order determining personal jurisdiction in a dissolution matter. Mijoshski Antwon Evans (the Husband) in support of his motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction served two sworn affidavits in which he declared that he did not intend to waive any jurisdictional defenses and set forth facts demonstrating his lack of connection with the state of Florida. Latoya Kay Evans (the Wife) served a sworn affidavit in opposition to the motion to dismiss in which she contended that she and the Husband lived in Florida for an extended period of time from 1998 until 2001 when they separated and ceased living together.
