Supreme Court of Delaware
Vama F.z. Co. v. Pacific Control Systems
August 26, 2020
Summary
The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Superior Court's refusal to recognize and domesticate the Dubai judgment because a New Jersey judgment had already resolved the same recognition and due-process issues between the parties. The court held that neither Rahulan's later removal nor differences in the states' burden-shifting rules created a materially different legal theory or outcome. The court also upheld the denial of Vama's requests to reopen the proceedings or submit additional evidence.
