Poe v. Kuyk

Lewis W. Poe, Petitioner, v. Charles F. G. Kuyk, Jr., et al.

The focus of the case is on whether an unhappy plaintiff from one court may attempt to proceed with the his/her case using a different theory in a second court. The argument is if the prior determination of one district court regarding the 'availability of nationwide service of process' as directed by 28 U.S.C. § 1391(e) is binding upon another court when the defendants are the same but the capacity in which they are sued differs.[5]

Family

Charles F. G. Kuyk is the son of the late Charles Frederick Goodwyn Kuyk, Esq. and Vivian Mae Derrick. He is through his father a descendant of Peterson Goodwyn, William Thornton (Virginia burgess) and William Thornton (immigrant).
