Affirmed in part, reversed in part and vacated in part.

Trial court erred in finding that 45 U.S.C. §56 controlled appellant's motion to dismiss appellees' FELA claims on forum non conveniens grounds and abused its discretion in giving heightened deference to appellees' choice of forum because §56 addressed venue in federal district courts, not forum non conveniens in state courts, and abused its discretion in denying the motion. Reversed.
Petitioner failed to demonstrate that employer's work rules were not uniformly enforced where both he and co-worker used "profane" and "abusive" language but only he was fired, as the record demonstrated that the conduct at issue was not the same and that petitioner's offensive conduct was more significant. The appellate court affirmed.
