   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  16-3353
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - St. Joseph   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Gruender, 
   Circuit Judge] 
   Civil case - Civil procedure. Plaintiff, a U.S. citizen domiciled in Ohio, 
   is a citizen of a state and defendant, a citizen of Egypt, is a citizen of 
   a foreign state and these facts created diversity jurisdiction under 28 
   U.S.C. Sec. 1332(a); plaintiff's dual citizenship did not defeat 
   jurisdiction; there were sufficient contacts with Missouri to permit the 
   constitutional exercise of Missouri's long-arm statute; the district court 
   did not err in rejecting defendant's statute of frauds defense as the 
   parties' oral contract for indefinite period of time does not, under 
   Missouri law, violate the statute.
