The court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing the case pursuant to CPLR 327. Even though the case is relatively simple and not unduly burdensome to New York's courts, there is only a minimal connection between the action and New York. There is no indication that any relevant events occurred in New York, and both the defendant and the sole non-party witness reside in Switzerland.
