LNTELATISNAL LAW

A report on public and private
international legal developments

In  convoluted   proceeding  involving  arbitration
and related legal proceedings in Germany, as well
as related lawsuit in U.S. District Court, Seventh
Circuit considers request for limited discovery in U.S.
proceeding amid claims that the discovered evidence
may be used in the German arbitration proceeding;
admissibility of such evidence is a matter for the
German arbitral tribunal to decide; Court grants
motion to seal certain documents in U.S. proceedings
because  of German     arbitration  rule  requiring
confidentiality of such documents I PAGE 2
European Court of Justice (ECJ) ponders whether
internet service provider (ISP) can be ordered to
prevent access to copyright-infringing website, and
whether an ISP is an intermediary within the
meaning of the EU Directive on copyright and thus
injunctions can issue against it I PAGE 5
Fifth Circuit reviews application of forum non
conveniens to dispute over software pending in both
in the U.S. and Brazil I PAGE II

In dispute where foreign plaintiffs (from Argentina)
filed lawsuit against foreign defendant (German
company Daimler AG), and all relevant events
occurred outside the U.S. (namely in Argentina),
U.S. Supreme Court reviews whether the foreign
defendant was at home in California and subject
to suit there on claims by foreign plaintiffs having
nothing to do with California I PAGE 14
Eleventh Circuit considers whether a certification
of the Secretary of State to establish jurisdiction to
prosecute drug traffickers arrested on the high seas
violates the Confrontation Clause; Court notes that
such certification does not prove an element of a
defendant's culpability I PAGE 17
