Federal Rule 44.1: Foreign Law In U.S. Courts Today, Vivian Grosswald Curran Nov 2020

Federal Rule 44.1: Foreign Law In U.S. Courts Today, Vivian Grosswald Curran

Articles

This article presents an in-depth analysis of the latent methodological issues that are as much a cause of U.S. federal court avoidance of foreign law as are judicial difficulties in obtaining foreign legal materials and difficulties in understanding foreign legal orders and languages. It explores Rule 44.1’s inadvertent introduction of a civil-law method into a common-law framework, and the results that have ensued, including an incomplete transition of foreign law from being an issue of fact to becoming an issue of law. It addresses the ways in which courts obtain information about foreign law today, suggesting among others the methodological …

To address these questions, we analyze the current regulatory approaches to MML in the USA and …

Comparative Method And International Litigation 2020, Ronald A. Brand

Articles

In this article, resulting from a presentation at the 2019 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Comparative Law, I apply comparative method to international litigation. I do so from the perspective of a U.S.-trained lawyer who has been involved for over 25 years in the negotiations that produced both the 2005 Hague Convention on Choice of Court Agreements and the 2019 Hague Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Judgments in Civil or Commercial Matters.

Justice System Reform And Internationalization, Daniel H. Foote Jan 2020

Justice System Reform And Internationalization, Daniel H. Foote

Articles

As discussant. normally my role would be to offer trenchant and perceptive critiques of each of the three main reports. those by Professors Takamizawa. Matsuo. and SuamL Those reports are broad in scope, both geographical and historical; each report is outstanding: and each provides much food for thought. Yet even if time and space permitted, I myself lack sufficient knowledge regarding China. Southeast Asia and Europe to provide a thorough critique. Instead. in this essay I will shift the focus back to Japan and examine various respects in which the justice system reforms have sought to promote internationalization.
