Illinois Appellate Court
Civil Court
Forum Non Conveniens
Court properly denied Defendants' forum non conveniens motion to transfer motor vehicle accident case filed in Cook County to Will or DuPage Co. Collision occurred in Will County, where Plaintiffs reside. Office of Defendant company and its driver was in Chicago, where one Plaintiff worked. Public interest factors favored Will County, but private interest factors favored Cook County, as Plaintiffs' chosen forum and Plaintiff's affidavit stated that Daley Center was substantially more convenient; and Daley Center was close to offices of both counsel. (HALL and REYES, concurring.)
