STATES 2D
Generally
C.A.2, 2020. Cit. generally in ftn. In a dispute arising from foreclosure proceedings initiated by county
against property owned by Indian tribe to collect unpaid real-estate taxes, this court affirmed the district
court's finding that the proceedings were barred by tribal sovereign immunity, holding that the common-
law exception to sovereign immunity for suits concerning immovable property did not apply. The court
noted that, when describing the exception, courts had looked to the Restatement Second of Foreign
Relations Law of the United States, which predated the enactment of the Foreign Sovereign Immunities
Act, and that nothing in the Restatement Third or Restatement Fourth, which postdated the Act,
appeared to alter the court's analysis. Cayuga Indian Nation of New York v. Seneca County, New York,
978 F.3d 829, 839.

D.P.R.2020. Subsec. (3) cit. in case quot. in sup. After the U.S. Coast Guard, acting with permission
from the Venezuelan government, searched a Venezuela-flag vessel in a known drug-trafficking area
located south of the United States Virgin Islands and found narcotics, a grand jury indicted several
members of the vessel's crew for violations of the Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act. This court
denied the crew members' motions to dismiss, in which they asserted that the Act was unconstitutional,
holding that the exercise of extraterritorial jurisdiction was proper pursuant to the territorial principle.
The court noted that, although the crew members were foreign citizens, the vessel was registered in
Venezuela, and the interdiction occurred on the high seas, the Act nonetheless applied because the flag
state provided consent to prosecute under Restatement Second of Foreign Relations Law § 3. United
States v. Marcano-Godoy, 462 F.Supp.3d 88, 96.
