Evidentiary Problems In--And Solutions For--The Uniform Commercial Code, Ronald J. Allen, Robert A. Hillman

Recent Developments: Rehearing Granted: Allied Bank International V. Banco Agricola Credito De Cartago And The Current International Debt Crisis

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The United States District Court for the Southern District has ordered a rehearing of the ruling in Allied Bank International v. Banco Agricola Credito de Cartago1 (Allied).

The early 1970's evidenced an unprecedented American growth in banking when United States banks expanded their international operations.2 The potential for future loan activity may be affected to a considerable extent, depending on how Allied is decided upon rehearing.

Historic Bays In International Law--An Impressionistic Overview, L. F. E. Goldie

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

This paper takes up the traditional concept of historic bays as one time-honored basis for asserting national claims at the expense of the common high seas, which, however, unlike some of the more recent forms of decentralized enclosures, purports to rely on, or should rely on, a specific, objective, and clearly articulated definition, rather than on a subjective one.

The Implementation Process Of The International Code Of Marketing Of Breastmilk Substitutes Jan 1984

The Implementation Process Of The International Code Of Marketing Of Breastmilk Substitutes

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The passage of the World Health Organization (WHO) "International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes" (Code of Breastmilk Substitutes) in May of 1981 marked a great achievement in the fight for improved infant health, but did not signify a lasting solution to the problem of poor marketing practices of infant formula manufacturers.

Fraud And Injunctive Relief In International Standby Letter Of Credit Transactions: A Comparative Study, Dirk H. Mahler Jan 1984

Fraud And Injunctive Relief In International Standby Letter Of Credit Transactions: A Comparative Study, Dirk H. Mahler

LLM Theses and Essays

This study attempts to compare the various concepts which have been developed under U.S. and German law, focusing in particular the interpretation of fraud and the prerequisites for injunctive relief. Comparative analysis of case law, statutory provisions and corresponding commentaries will illustrate that although evolved out of different legal backgrounds the results show only minor deviations, a phenomenon which might support the hypothesis that instruments developed by practitioners to serve international commercial needs tend to give birth to uniform internationalized legal treatment.
