According to the court, the Atlanta-based jewelry-maker which crafts jewelry from authentic, recycled, and repurposedChanel buttons has not only transacted enough business in New York state to subject it to litigation there but has failed to sufficiently show that the case should be transferred to a federal court in Georgia. Delving into the convenience claims, the court states that despite pointing to potential witnesses in Georgia, S+D provide[s] the Court [with] no information about [its] potential witnesses or the importance of their testimony. On the other hand, Chanel identifies multiple potential witnesses who reside or work in New York. At the same time, Chanel also put forth evidence that it does not maintain offices or have any corporate employees in Georgia, does not have counsel or relationships with attorneys in Georgia, and that all of its employees with knowledge of the issues in this case are located in New York., In terms of the balance of the equities, the court is not persuaded by S+Ds arguments here, either, holding that the relative means of the parties is not dispositive and does not tip the scales in favor of overturning [Chanels] choice of forum, particularly given the other relevant considerations discussed above. Ultimately, JudgeVyskocil states that S+D has not demonstrated that interests of justice and convenience favor transfer to the Northern District of Georgia, and in reality,transferring the case to Georgia would only serve to shift the inconveniences of one party and its witnesses to the other., While such arguments went largely unaddressed in the courts order,S+D asserted in its motion to dismiss thatChanel lacks jurisdiction, as under New York, a court may exercise personal jurisdiction over a nonresident who causes injury to a person within the state only if the nonresident tortfeasor: (1) expects or should reasonably expect the act to have consequences in the state; and (2) derives substantial revenue from interstate or international commerce. Here, S+D alleged that it had no reason to expect that its actions could subject it to suit in New York; first, because all of its actions were taken in accordance with, and under the protection of, the First Sale Doctrine, and second, because all of S+Ds actions occurred in Georgia. As such, S+D stated that there is nothing that would raise expectations that [it] would be facing a lawsuit in New York., In addition to being protected by the First Sale Doctrine, whichgenerallypermits theresale of a trademark-bearing item after it has been sold by the trademark owner (even if that subsequent sale is done without the trademark owners consent), S+D has alleged in response to the Chanel lawsuit that it uses an array of disclaimers to alert consumers that it and its products are not affiliated with Chanel, thereby, removing necessary element of likelihood of confusion.
