THOMAS R. WALSH et al., Plaintiffs-Appellees, v. RAMADA INNS, INC., et al., Defendants-Appellants.

Appellate Court of Illinois — First District (4th Division).

Rehearing denied March 30, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Pretzel & Stouffer, Chartered, of Chicago (Frederic X. Shadley, Mark P. Standa, and Robert Marc Chemers, of counsel), for appellants.

No brief filed for appellees.


Reversed and remanded.

JUSTICE LINN delivered the opinion of the court:

We allowed the petition of certain defendants (Ramada Inns, Inc., John A. Cassens and John E.H. Cassens) for leave to appeal from the denial of their intrastate forum non conveniens motion. (107 Ill.2d R. 306(a)(1)(ii).) On appeal, defendants contend that the trial court abused its discretion in refusing to transfer this cause to Whiteside County, Illinois.
