At the outset we reject [the defendant's] contention that Tex. Civ. Prac. Rem. Code § 71.031 confers federal question jurisdiction. . . .

Section 71.031, Florida Statutes, provides:
First, petitioner asserts a claim under Singapore law. App. 40. The District Court did not resolve the merits of this claim in its 1980 order. Rather, the only issue decided by the District Court was that petitioner's claims should be dismissed under the federal forum non conveniens doctrine. Federal forum non conveniens principles simply cannot determine whether Texas courts, which operate under a broad "open-courts" mandate, would consider themselves an appropriate forum for petitioner's lawsuit. See Tex. Const., Art. I, § 13; Tex. Civ. Prac. Rem. Code Ann. § 71.031 (1986). Cf. Pennzoil Co. v. Texaco, Inc., 481 U.S. 1, 11-12 (1987). Respondents' arguments to the District Court in 1980 reflected this distinction, citing federal cases almost exclusively and discussing only federal forum non conveniens principles. See App. 10-12, 17-26. Moreover, the Court of Appeals expressly recognized that the Texas courts would apply a significantly different forum non conveniens analysis. 817 F.2d, at 314.
