REVISED JUNE 3, 2010

Before BENAVIDES, STEWART, and SOUTHWICK, Circuit Judges.

In this case, we are asked to review the dismissal of an action seeking redress for injuries suffered in a deadly maritime accident off the coast of Mexico. However, at this time, we forego a ruling on the merits of the dismissal of this case for forum non conveniens. After plaintiffs filed this appeal, the district judge who presided over this case recused himself, calling into question the continued validity of his dismissal. Given the incomplete information in the record regarding the circumstances of the judge’s recusal, we remand this case to the district court for the limited purpose of addressing whether the dismissal of this case should be set aside.
