interesting - if completed this will hurt guerilla's chances to operate in the USA - something to watch for carefullyComment

humm. I thought this was interesting.
?The U.S. federal court system allows a plaintiff to sue a foreign entity in any U.S. district,? he said. ?We don?t care where you are or who you are; if you steal from us, we?re going to get you.?
Of course stealing is wrong but it's interesting that somehow the US courts have power over people or entities in other countries. If I'm a Japanese citizen, for example, and someone in the US sues me, and I say "fuck you, I'm not showing up to court" then how can they do anything? Are they going to show up in Japan and arrest me? I don't get it.Last edited by Ayla_SquareTurtle; 01-18-2007, 08:16 AM.gone. long gone.

Ayla, The end result would be a default judgement, with no ability for that judgement to be fulfilled.
However, if any of your business touched the US, in theory the collection agents could get really nasty and make it very difficult for you to continue to work in the US.
This could get ugly.Comment

all I can say is that guerilla webmasters - don't panic over this and jump ship - watch carefully what is happening and be smart rather than reacting too quickly - we still haven't heard the other side of the story yetComment
-
I do not speak for guerilla at all - if you read what was said - I was commenting that I hope that webmasters don't suddenly read this report and cancel with guerilla too quickly without hearing from them first or following along the news. Far too often webmasters simply jump on a bandwagon.
Of course I am letting the courts settle this out - as with any company if something is posted, I prefer to not react to quickly. I was only giving advice.Comment

Think this should be very interesting to see how all this unfolds, but I certainly agree no one should jump ship yet. They just need to play it smart and protect themselves...Comment

Is it just me, or does it seem kinda classless to serve someone papers at a convention?
Comment
-
A convention is perfect. The effect of serving papers should not only be to make the legal statement, but also to being the public shaming part of the whole deal. IMHO Falcon chose exactly the right time and place to serve people that are likely not in the US all that often.Comment

United States Code (that's Federal Law, in case you didn't know) states "an alien may be sued in any district" 28 U.S.C. 1391(d). "The district courts shall have original jurisdiction of all civil actions where the matter in controversy exceeds the sum or value of $75,000 ... and is between ... citizens of a state and citizens or subjects of a foreign state." 28 U.S.C. 1332(a)(2). The United States has treaties with many foreign countries (including Canada and Japan) that allow citizens of one country who receives a court judgment against an entity in the other country to enter that judgment in a court of the defendant's county and get execution on the judgment in the country of the defendant. This is generally referred to as the "full faith and credit of judgments" provision in those treaties.DISCLAIMER: I am not giving you legal advice, and there is no attorney-client relationship established between us as a result of this writing. You should seek the advice of an attorney in your area for any legal questions you may have.

If you happen to read this, drop me a line sometime. My brother is an attorney. He was a deputy prosecutor for several years and now represents the county in certain family law matters, if you follow. Anyway, I've been telling him for years that when he decides to finally go into private practice he should think outside the box as far as what area to get into. I'd LOVE to put you two in contact. He's brilliant, and has done all my work related legal stuff since '99; unofficially of course.
