Description
Leong Chong, a Singapore resident employed in Singapore, was killed while working on board a berthed tanker. Chongs widow, Chick Kam Choo, sued Exxon Corporation and others in Texas state district court. Exxon Corporation and Esso Tankers, Inc. filed a motion to dismiss based upon the federal maritime law doctrine of forum non conveniens. The trial court granted the motion to dismiss "because the state law of Texas is preempted by federal maritime law and this case should be dismissed on the basis of forum non conveniens." The court of appeals reversed and remanded. 821 S.W.2d 190. We hold that the federal maritime doctrine of forum non conveniens does not preempt the application of Texas " forum non conveniens law." For the reasons explained herein, we affirm the judgment of the court of appeals.
