Harrington v. Energy West, Inc.
Montana Supreme Court
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Baker
¶1 Jonathan Harrington asserted several employment-related claims against Energy West Inc. Following our remand in Harrington v. Energy West, Inc., 2015 MT 233, 380 Mont. 298, 356 P.3d 441 (hereafter Harrington I), the District Court denied Harrington’s motion to amend his complaint and granted Energy West’s motion to dismiss based on the doctrine of forum non conveniens. Harrington contends that the District Court abused its discretion in denying him leave to amend his complaint and that it incorrectly dismissed the case under forum non conveniens.
¶2 We affirm.
