   "Stanford law Professor Jeffrey Fisher, who represented Sachs before the   
   high court, said ... OBB acknowledged in court filings that Sachs could   
   sue in Austria, though she would prefer to stay home because of her   
   physical impairments."   
      
   It would appear not, but she's probably unlikely to receive as high a   
   payout in an Austrian court, especially as there seems to be a question   
   about contributory negligence.
