California Court of Appeal

In a workers' compensation claim brought by a professional basketball player who was not employed by a California team, has never resided in California, has played one professional game in California out of 34 games played during the 2003 season, and has suffered no specific injury in California, who seeks an award against her former non-California team and its insurer for a disability based on a cumulative injury, California does not have a sufficient interest in this matter to apply its workers' compensation law and to retain jurisdiction over the case.
