AFFIRMED IN PART; REVERSED AND REMANDED IN PART

This is an accelerated, interlocutory appeal of the trial court’s order sustaining the special appearances of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu International (DTT); the Cayman Islands Firm of Deloitte & Touche (DT-Cayman); and two DT-Cayman employees, Michael Pilling and Glen W. Wigney. We conclude that the trial court did not err in granting the special appearance of DTT; therefore, we affirm that portion of the trial court’s judgment. However, because we conclude the trial court abused its discretion in ruling that it could not exercise personal jurisdiction over DT-Cayman and its employees, we reverse and remand that portion of the judgment.
