Judicial Enforcement of International Debt Obligations

David M. Sassoon and Daniel D. Bradlow, editors

This work surveys the legal issues most likely to arise in a judicial action to enforce an obligation. The first half of the book discusses procedural issues, including forum selection and governing law, service of process outside the forum, enforcement of judgments, and sovereign immunity. The second half focuses on the defenses most likely to be raised by a defendant debtor in a judicial action, such as the act-of-state doctrine, comity, and force majeure; defenses arising under the IMF Articles of Agreement; and defenses that arise under the defendant's own law.
