In Grizzle v. Hertz Corp., 305 AD2d 311, 312, 761 N.Y.S.2d 163 [1st Dept, 2003], the plaintiff, a New York resident, was injured while in Jamaica. One of the defendants was a New York corporation. In denying the motion to dismiss for forum non conveniens, the First Department held that: "The fact that the police officer who responded--after the fact--to the accident scene is a resident of Jamaica does not provide a counterweight to the conclusion that the plaintiff's choice of forum should be respected, since he was not a witness to the accident and there is no suggestion that he would be able to offer any material evidence other than his written report, which both parties presumably already have" (Grizzle v. Hertz Corp., supra, 305 AD2d at 312).
