Yoshi, a Japanese citizen working in Atlanta for his Tokyo firm, decided to rent an airplane and fly himself to the Annual Catfish and Zydeco festival in Thibodaux, Louisiana. He rented a small plane to fly there. Over Alabama, thunderstorms formed. Because Yoshi was not trained to fly by instruments, he decided to land at the next airport. As he searched for a runway, Yoshi heard a loud clank
followed by silence as the engine died. He tried to land in a field but crashed. While recovering in a rehabilitation center in California, Yoshi filed suit there against the Atlanta Airport and the owners of the airplane, alleging that they were negligent in their maintenance. Yoshi sues defendants $5 million. The defendants may ask the California court to use its:
a. original jurisdiction to move the suit to a federal court
b. concurrent jurisdiction to move the suit to federal court c. its removal powers to move the suit to a federal court
d. removal powers to move the suit to a Georgia state court
e. none of the other choices; the case must be in California state court if Yoshi insists
