I

Robert Johansen, a citizen of the United Kingdom, was injured in Libya in March 1980, when an oil well casing gun he was assembling exploded. Almost three years after the accident, Johansen filed this action against E.I. Du Pont de Nemours & Co. (Du Pont) and eight others. All defendants other than Du Pont were dismissed on the basis of forum non conve- niens. No appeal was taken from these dismissals.
