Daimlerchrysler Corporation, Petitioner v. Bill Inman, David Castro, and John Wilkins, Each Individually and On…

Summary

The Texas Supreme Court held that the three plaintiffs lack standing because their alleged injury from the Gen‑3 seatbelt buckles is too speculative, and therefore dismissed the nationwide class action for want of jurisdiction. The Court also noted that the trial court erred by not conducting a choice‑of‑law analysis before certifying the class.
