Michigan Law Review
In 1953 the government of Peru authorized the issuance of scrip certificates to holders of certain of its bonds. Plaintiffs were members of a class of former bondholders who were not among the distributees of the scrip under the terms of the Peruvian enabling act. They alleged that they were entitled to share in the scrip by reason of contracts with the government of Peru and that defendants tortiously had induced Peru to breach these contracts by excluding the plaintiffs from the terms of the legislative enactment. The defense interposed was that litigation of the cause would make it necessary …

After occupying the Netherlands, Germany confiscated bonds of Netherlands nationals and sold them in the black market. Archimedes, an American national, purchased such bonds from a Swiss firm in violation of the Trading with the Enemy Act and executive freezing order. The bonds were placed in a blocked account in the Federal Reserve Bank. A suit by the Netherlands was removed to the New York federal district court and Archimedes was interpleaded. The Netherlands claimed title under a decree made in exile vesting protective title in the Netherlands government. While holding that the complaint stated a cause of action, the …
