     CHAPTER 3.   RESOLUTION AND AVOIDANCE OF CONFLICTS OF JURISDICTION

   TOPIC  1. CONFLICTS   ARISING   FROM   EXISTENCE OF CONCURRENT JURISDICTION
                              TO  PRESCRIBE AND ENFORCE

  TITLE  B. EXERCISE   OF  JURISDICTION INVOLVING INCONSISTENT REQUIREMENTS
                                       OF  CONDUCT

  § 40. Limitations on Exercise of Enforcement Jurisdiction

  S.D.N.Y.2014. Quot. in case quot. in ftn. (general cite). Creditor brought an action against debtors,
  seeking to enforce a judgment based on debtors' fraudulent diversion of loans that were made by
  creditor to a Turkish telecommunications company, which was owned in part by debtors. The trial court
  denied in part creditor's motion to compel debtors' banks to produce financial information regarding
  debtors' assets that the banks held. This court reversed, ordering the banks to comply with creditor's
  subpoenas issued on the banks' New York offices for information on their offices located in France,
  Jordan, and the United Arab Emirates, and quashing the subpoenas to the extent that they sought

  Russian government decree brought a trademark-infringement action under the Lanham Act against,
  among others, competitor, alleging that defendant unlawfully imported and sold vodka bearing the
  trademark in the United States. This court granted defendant's motion to dismiss for lack of subject-
  matter jurisdiction, holding that the Russian Civil Code, which prevailed over the decree, limited
  plaintiff's rights of ownership. Citing Restatement Second of Foreign Relations Law § 43, the court,
  however, noted that the act-of-state doctrine did not prevent the court from examining the decree of a
  foreign state that declared U.S. trademark rights to be its own property, because the trademark rights
