Facts
Jean Pizzarusso intentionally made false statements on a visa application at the American consulate in Montreal, Canada.

Pizzarusso appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, with the sole issue being whether the district court had properly invoked jurisdiction over an act Pizzarusso had committed in Canada.
