FKM, Inc. appeals the district court’s order granting Cleto Williams’ motion to lift stay in this action brought under the Limitation of Liability Act, 46 U.S.C. app. §§ 181-195 (the Act). We affirm.

We essentially agree with the analysis given by the district court, and can find no error of law or abuse of discretion that would warrant overturning the order. So long as the district court hearing the limitation action “satisfies itself that a vessel owner’s right to seek limitation will be protected, the decision to dissolve the injunction is well within the court’s discretion.” Lewis v. Lewis & Clark Marine, Inc., 531 U.S. 438, 454, 121 S.Ct. 993, 148 L.Ed.2d 931 (2001). While Lewis did not involve the precise issue pending before us, we believe that the essential purpose of the Act in these circumstances- — to limit FKM’s liability to the value of the limitation fund — was preserved.

Perhaps one party or the other has engaged in forum shopping, and perhaps one court or the other should entertain a motion for intra-district transfer, but that issue is not before us.

AFFIRMED.
