Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments: Analysis and Proposed Federal Statute
(previously titled International Jurisdiction and Judgments Project)
This statutory project is proceeding on two alternative tracks. The first involves the drafting of a proposed federal statute to implement in the United States the General Convention on International Jurisdiction and Judgments now being drafted by The Hague Conference on Private International Law. The second entails the drafting of a proposed federal statute to govern the recognition of foreign judgments should the contemplated Convention not be adopted or not be agreed to by the United States.
