0806 Trial court was correct in dismissing, on the ground of forum non conveniens, a products liability claim in which plaintiffs resided in Nevada, the product was purchased in Nevada from a Nevada resident, the accident occurred in Nevada, most of the witnesses reside in Nevada and Idaho and would be extremely inconvenienced by a California trial, the California defendant neither designed nor manufactured the product, and the lawsuit would be a burden on California courts, jurors, and taxpayers.CitationRINAURO v HONDA (Nevada Conveniens) 31 CA4 506 [See: Stangvik v Shiley 54 C3 744; CCP 410.30]
