| Summary |
Bilateral recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments has become a stress point in the commercial, political, and social relationship, especially between neighboring countries. The present book examines in detail how this issue has been solved both at the federal and the state level, focusing on the U.S. and Mexico. By analyzing thoroughly both substantive and procedural law, this book tries to show how any litigant should address the issue when facing a case where a foreign judgment needs to be recognized and enforced in the U.S. or Mexico. The book attempts to locate the current debate and prospective solutions reviewing very succinctly the way arbitral awards have been able to overcome the uncertainty issue faced by foreign decisions because they are basically governed by one universal legal instrument, the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, which is incorporated into the U.S. legal system through the Federal Arbitration Act. It is important to note that the facts, evidence, and law is applicable to all foreign judgments, including the closest partners of the U.S. such as Mexico or Canada, since as of today the U.S. has not ratified any international treaty with particular countries on the matter. |
