Attorney General Bradford’S Opinion And The Alien Tort Statute, Curtis A. Bradley Jan 2012

Attorney General Bradford’S Opinion And The Alien Tort Statute, Curtis A. Bradley

Faculty Scholarship

In debates over the scope of the Alien Tort Statute (ATS), one historical document has played an especially prominent role. This document is a short opinion by U.S. Attorney General William Bradford, issued in the summer of 1795, concerning the involvement of U.S. citizens in an attack by a French fleet on a British colony in Sierra Leone. Numerous academic articles, judicial opinions, and litigation briefs have invoked the Bradford opinion, for a variety of propositions, and the opinion was discussed by both sides in the oral argument before the Supreme Court in the first hearing in the pending ATS …


Colonialism Without Colonies: On The Extraterritorial Jurisprudence Of The U.S. Court For China, Teemu Ruskola Jul 2008

Colonialism Without Colonies: On The Extraterritorial Jurisprudence Of The U.S. Court For China, Teemu Ruskola

Law and Contemporary Problems

The US Court for China was created by Congress in 1906, and it was not abolished until 1943. The Shanghai-based court had extraterritorial jurisdiction over all American citizens within its district, known as the District of China for jurisdictional purposes. The court is fascinating in its own right, and it produced what one observer has described as a system of jurisdiction that was more complete than that of any body extraterritorial law. Here, Ruskola elaborates the court's jurisprudence. He focuses on some of the conflicts-of-law problems the court had to face. Also, he describes the law applied by the court, …

Schoenbaum Revisited: Limiting The Scope Of Antifraud Protection In An Internationalized Securities Marketplace, Donald C. Langevoort Oct 1992

Schoenbaum Revisited: Limiting The Scope Of Antifraud Protection In An Internationalized Securities Marketplace, Donald C. Langevoort

Law and Contemporary Problems

In 1968, the Second Circuit decided "Schoenbaum vs Firstbrook," a doctrinally significant case for two reasons. The initial panel decision found, among other things, that the allegedly fraudulent mismanagement of a foreign company had sufficient effects in the US to trigger the assertion of US subject matter jurisdiction. It is argued that as a result of the forces creating an internationalized securities marketplace, the prevailing extraterritoriality doctrine has become both useless and problematic.
