International Law (ACPIL): Public Meeting on the Judgments Project

    The Office of the Assistant Legal Adviser for Private International

the judgments project. The public meeting will take place on Monday, 
November 10, 2014, from 10:00 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. EST. This is not a 
meeting of the full Advisory Committee.
    A Working Group of the Hague Conference has met three times thus 
far to discuss the structure and provisions of a convention on the 
recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments.
    The purpose of the public meeting is to obtain the views of 
concerned stakeholders on the different approaches to a convention that 
have been proposed, and to discuss the relative advantages and 
disadvantages of the different approaches. Among other things, we would 
like to receive views and thoughts on the use of jurisdictional 
criteria or filters in determining which judgments should be recognized 
and enforced.
    Time and Place: The meeting will take place from 10:00 a.m. until
