Olympic Airways v. Husain : ウィキペディア英語版 | Olympic Airways v. Husain
''Olympic Airways v. Husain'', , was a United States Supreme Court case related to Olympic Airways Flight 417. ==Background== Abid Hanson and his wife, Rubina Husain, were sitting in non-smoking seats on Olympic Airways Flight 417, but were located very close to the smoking section. Mr. Hanson was allergic to second-hand smoke. The couples request to be moved was denied by the flight crew, and because of the inhalation of smoke during the flight, Mr. Hanson died. Rubina Husain filed suit in a California federal district court seeking damages under Article 17 of the Warsaw Convention. This article allowed damages to be recovered by international air travelers for accidents that occur during a flight. Upholding the statute from the Warsaw convention, the district court ruled that Mr. Hanson's death was an "accident" and awards Rubina Husain $1.4 million. This ruling was upheld by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
