Dusenbery v. U.S. - correct answer Due process clause does not require that government perform
heroic efforts to provide notice of a forfeiture proceeding; rather, it requires only that the Government's

reasonably anticipate being brought into court there.
Burger King Corp. v. Rudzewicz - correct answer Where the circumstances establish a substantial and
continuing relationship with a forum state and indicate that there was a fair notice that a non-resident
might be subject to suit in the forum state, the assertion of personal jurisdiction over the nonresident by
the forum state, if otherwise fair, does not offend due process.

with awareness that the product would reach the forum state.
