Per Curiam. We have carefully reviewed the record in __________
this case and affirm the dismissal for lack of personal
jurisdiction. The record indicates that, although much of
the information would have been available to her from the
proper sources, plaintiff failed to place in the record the
"specific facts" necessary to support her jurisdictional
allegation. Boit v. Gar-Tec Products, Inc., 967 F.2d 671, ____ ______________________
680 (1st Cir. 1992). The record likewise shows that
plaintiff never asked that the court permit discovery on the
limited issue of personal jurisdiction. See id. ___ __
Consequently, plaintiff has not met her burden, id. at 675, __
of showing that defendant's contacts with Maine were
sufficiently "substantial" or sufficiently "continuous and
systematic" so that the exercise of personal jurisdiction
over it in this case would comport with due process.
Affirmed. See Loc. R. 27.1. ________ ___
