New York Court of Appeals
Sung Hwan Co., Ltd., Appellant v. Rite Aid Corporation, Respondent
June 6, 20067 N.Y.3d 78
Summary
The New York Court of Appeals held that the Korean court’s exercise of personal jurisdiction over Rite Aid satisfied New York’s long‑arm statute, so the foreign judgment is enforceable under CPLR article 53. Accordingly, the Court reversed the Appellate Division’s dismissal of the complaint and remanded for further proceedings.
