Answer:
In order to get jurisdiction over someone overseas, you must show that they have "minimum contacts" in the jurisdiction where the suit is filed. It is a matter of discretion for the court to decide whether such contacts exist, however, the main inquiry is whether the defendant's conduct made it foreseeable that he/she could be sued in that jurisdiction.
