Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that the English judgments satisfy the statutory prerequisites for recognition under CPLR article 53 and that the defendants’ later applications to the English High Court constitute a voluntary appearance, barring a personal‑jurisdiction challenge. The court also rejected the defendants’ due‑process and mootness arguments.
