OPINION

LANSING, Judge.

Insurers filed a declaratory action in a Minnesota district court against a manufacturer of silicone breast implants to determine product liability coverage. The district court granted them a temporary injunction against litigation of a substantially similar action brought by the manufacturer in Texas state court. We conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in granting the injunction, and we affirm.
