FELA: US Supreme Court to Review Personal Jurisdiction Criteria

The United States Supreme Court will review the merits of a case involving the personal jurisdiction criteria of a FELA case.

"Issue: Whether a state court may decline to follow the Supreme Court's decision in Daimler AG v. Bauman, which held that the due process clause forbids a state court from exercising general personal jurisdiction over a defendant that is not at home in the forum state, in a suit against an American defendant under the Federal Employers' Liability Act."
