Allegheny Airlines is incorporated in Delaware and has flights throughout the states of Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut, and also in Washington, D.C. Wayne Jones, a resident of Las Vegas, Nevada, is severely

injured when an Allegheny flight carrying him from Pittsburgh to Johnstown, Pennsylvania, crashes on landing. Jones has damages of over $250,000. In what court can Jones properly bring suit and where?


There is diversity and a claim in excess of $75,000, so federal district court is appropriate. The location is either Pennsylvania (site of the crash) or Delaware (principal place of business). Allegheny could not be required to defend a lawsuit in Nevada since it has no contacts there.
