Sandra Noble, a citizen of New York, was walking along a busy street in Brooklyn, New York, when a piece of scrap metal flew off an open truck and hit her, causing serious injuries. She experienced a great deal of pain and suffering, incurred significant medical expenses, and could not work for six months. She wants to sue the trucking firm for $1,000, 000 in damages. The firm’s headquarters are in Delaware, although the company does business in New York.
Can Sandra bring suit in New York state court? Why or why not?
