Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A critical consideration in transnational civil and commercial litigation is whether a judgment ultimately rendered by a court in favor of the successful party will be respected and enforced outside the jurisdiction where it was rendered-especially in foreign jurisdictions where the judgment debtor might have assets. It is an issue for practitioners to consider carefully, not only after such a dispute has arisen but equally in the context of negotiating (or deciding to forego) a contractual choice of forum clause. In this area, domestic law continues to predominate. No general principle of law or broad rule of customary international law compels domestic courts to enforce foreign judgments in civil or commercial matters. Accordingly, in the absence of a comprehensive international arrangement or broadly-applicable set of "judicial assistance" rules and procedures, domestic judicial systems have not traditionally embraced an obligation to recognize or enforce judgments rendered in other states. Where they have done so, it has traditionally been as an exercise of "international comity" rather than an obligation. That said, many states have entered into bilateral arrangements with their neighbors (sometimes called "judicial assistance treaties") providing inter alia for mutual recognition and enforcement of civil and commercial judgments on the basis of reciprocity. In addition, some regional "harmonization" arrangements exist, for example within the European Union and the Organization of American States ("OAS"). More consequentially, in 2019, the Hague Conference on Private International Law concluded a multilateral "judgments" convention, now in force for a small number of states but with the potential to transform this area of international civil and commercial practice. These diverse aspects are discussed in some detail below. By way of background, we begin with an overview of the relevant law in the United States, followed by a more detailed examination of the issues related to the enforcement of foreign judgments in U.S. courts, including several notable developments. We also discuss the related topics of enforcement of arbitral awards and choice of court agreements. The chapter then turns to an overview of the law governing recognition and enforcement of judgments in countries other than the United States. It concludes with an overview of the recently-adopted 2019 Hague Judgments Convention, which holds the promise of a new widely-accepted regime on the enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters"--

Download or read book Obtaining Evidence Abroad in Criminal Cases 2010 written by Michael Abbell and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-11-11 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today’s “flatter” world, the most serious criminal activity affecting the United States is increasingly transnational, thereby requiring the active assistance of other countries to combat it. The United States only relatively recently has dealt with this problem by entering into a growing number of bilateral and multilateral treaties, agreements, and formal and informal law enforcement arrangements. This treatise, designed for prosecutors, defense attorneys, judges and academics, is written by the former Department of Justice official responsible for supervising the implementation and design of United States treaties and statutes as it began to cope with this explosion of transnational criminal activity. It describes and analyzes in detail the legal aspects of, and operation under, these treaties, statutes, and other measures. Additional titles by Michael Abbell include: • International Prisoner Transfer 2010 • Extradition to and from the United States 2010 This is the final Edition, there will be no further updates for this series.
