Based on the nature of Palka’s forum-related activities and their relationship to the claims asserted, we conclude that California could, consistent with due process, exercise personal jurisdiction over Palka. Because California’s long-arm statute extends to the limit of due process and is applicable in this action pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 4(e), the district court erred in concluding that it could not exercise personal jurisdiction over Palka. We therefore reverse the district court’s dismissal for want of personal jurisdiction. Both parties’ requests for attorney’s fees on appeal pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 1132(g) are denied.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.
