When resolving conflict-of-law problems some courts have determined that the law of the state having the most significant interest should apply. Suppose an airplane crashes in South Carolina, injuring all four persons aboard. If the airplane manufacturer is in Texas, the plane left from Texas to go to Virginia, and all four of the injured parties are from Texas, an attorney for the pilot of the plane, hoping to keep the case in Texas, should argue that:
a. all of witnesses and medical records are in South Carolina
b. the interests of Texas in adjudicating the case outweigh the interests of South Carolina c. South Carolina has a superior interest in keeping its reputation for safe airways intact d. federal aviation rules control, so the case should be heard in Washington, D.C.
e. the attorney should avoid all of these arguments
