Description
Plaintiff, Jesus Echeverry, a citizen of the Republic of Colombia (who was thus an alien), instituted, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, a civil action against Kellogg Switchboard and Supply Company (hereinafter called Kellogg), a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Illinois. The District Court granted Kelloggs motion to dismiss on two grounds: (1) The venue was improperly laid in the Southern District of New York; (2) Service of process in this District on Willard L. Jones was not valid and binding on Kellogg. The ground of each of these holdings was that Kellogg was not doing business in the Southern District of New York in so far as the term "doing business" constituted a basis for either the propriety of the venue or the validity of the service of process. Plaintiff has duly appealed to us.
