Grupo Televisa, S.A. v. Telemundo Communications Group, Inc

In Grupo Televisa, S.A. v. Telemundo Communications Group, Inc. (11th Cir. 2007) 485 F.3d 1233, the forum state was Florida, which "resolves conflict-of-laws questions according to the 'most significant relationship' test outlined in the Restatement (Second) of Conflict of Laws." (Grupo, at p. 1240.) In considering various factors, the appellate court held an action for misappropriation of trade values was subject to Florida law rather than Mexican law, and thus the district court erred by dismissing the action on summary judgment. (Id. at pp. 1240, 1246-1247.) Under the Restatement's test, the principal location of the defendant's conduct was the single most important contact. (Grupo, at pp. 1240, 1246-1247.)
