Harris v. Balk 198 U.S. 215 (1905) was a United States Supreme Court case that exemplified the bizarre types of jurisdiction state courts (and therefore plaintiffs) could assert through quasi in rem actions before International Shoe’s minimum contacts test replaced Pennoyer’s principles of power and notice.This case involved three parties: Harris Balk and Epstein. Harris owed Balk money and Balk owed Epstein money. Thus there was no debt relationship between Harris and Epstein.
