November 29, 2013 Read the article
Litigation partners Martin Flumenbaum and Brad Karp's Second Circuit Review column appeared in the November 29 issue of the New York Law Journal. The article, "Jurisdiction Over Foreign Financial Institutions Based on Bank Accounts," discusses Licci v. Lebanese Canadian Bank, in which the court considered whether a district court's exercise of personal jurisdiction over a foreign bank based on its correspondent banking accounts in New York is consistent with the due process protections of the U.S. Constitution. Law clerk Ekta Dharia assisted in the preparation of this column.
