Commercial Union Insurance v. Wheeling Pittsburgh Corp.
Ohio Court of Appeals
1Opinion of the Court
Fain, Judge.
Plaintiffs-appellants Commercial Union Insurance Company and Employees Commercial Union Insurance Company appeal from a judgment dismissing their action because of a pending action in West Virginia. Commercial Union contends that the pending West Virginia action does not involve the same subject matter as the present case, so that the trial court erred when it dismissed the action upon the ground that there was another case pending involving the same subject matter. Commercial Union also contends that dismissal was not warranted under principles of forum non conveniens.
