Pribetic on Foreign Judgments in Canada

Antonin Pribetic (Himelfarb Proszanski) has posted Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments in Canada on SSRN.

This paper provides an overview of the governing conflict of laws principles for the recognition or enforcement of foreign judgments, including an analysis of the recent Court of Appeal for Ontario decision in Yaiguaje et al. v. Chevron Corporation et al. and its implications for the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments, generally. The issue of state immunity as an obstacle to foreign judgment enforcement is also considered.
