Jurisdiction- James Clayton Allison, a resident of the state of Mississippi, was employed by the Tru-Amp Corporation as a circui

t breaker tester. As a part of his employment , Allison was sent to inspect, clean, and test a switch gear located at the South Central Bell Telephone Facility in Brentwood, Tennessee. One day, when he attempted to remove a circuit breaker manufactured by ITE Corporation(ITE) from a bank of breakers, a portion of the breaker fell off. The broken piece fell behind a switching bank and, according to Allison, caused an electrical fire and exploration. Allison was severely burned in the accident. Allison brought suit against ITE in a Mississippi state court, claiming more than $50,000 in damages. Can this suit be removed to federal court? Allison v ITE Imperial Corp.; 729 F.

Answer:

The US District Court ruled that this case must be served by a court in Tennessee because:

  • Allison was injured while working in Tennessee
  • The place where Allison got involved with the defendant is Tennessee, so their relationship took place there.

If the lawsuit had been for a higher amount (at least $75,000), then the case could have been tried by a federal court.
