Case Summary

P1538 In consolidated products liability actions arising from a plane crash that occurred in China, in which there were no witnesses or documents in California but there were witnesses and evidence in China, in which California was not home to any of the parties, while China was home to the vast majority of plaintiffs and one of the defendants, and in which all defendants agreed to be bound by the judgment of the court, a stay on the ground of forum non conveniens was proper, since the California court retained power to verify that plaintiffs were able to bring their actions in China and that defendants lived up to their stipulations.
