DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice: 7760] 

U.S. Department of State Advisory 

Committee on Private International 

Law (ACPIL): Notice of Public Meeting 

of Its Study Group on the Hague 

Convention on Choice of Court 

Agreements 

The Office of the Assistant Legal 

Adviser for Private International Law, 

Department of State, hereby gives notice 

of a public meeting of the ACPIL Study 

Group on the Hague Convention on 

Choice of Court Agreements. The 

meeting will take place on Monday, 

March 5, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., at the 

main State Department building (Harry 

S Truman Building). This is not a 

meeting of the full Advisory Committee. 

The Study Group will meet to discuss 

the draft federal legislation that has 

been developed to implement the 

Convention. It is proposed that the 

Convention would be implemented 

through a ‘‘cooperative federalism’’ 

approach whereby states could elect to 

enact a uniform state act, which would 

apply in that state in lieu of the federal 

statute. 

Key issues to be discussed include: 

the scope of federal court jurisdiction in 

actions brought to recognize or enforce 

the judgment of a foreign chosen court; 

provisions on the statute of limitations 

for bringing recognition/enforcement 

actions; and whether to prescribe the 

basis for quasi in rem jurisdiction in 

recognition/enforcement actions. 

Participants may comment also on other 

provisions of the draft federal 

legislation. 

Prior to the Study Group meeting, we 

will send out the latest federal and state 

drafts to all those who indicate that they 

intend to attend the meeting or 

participate by telephone or who 

otherwise express an interest in 

commenting on the draft federal text. 

Those who cannot attend but wish to 

comment are welcome to do so by email 

to Keith Loken at lokenk@state.gov. 

Time and Place: The meeting will 

take place in Room 1406, Harry S 

Truman Building, 2201 C Street NW., 

Washington, DC 20520. Participants 

should plan to arrive by 12:30 p.m. for 

visitor screening. If you are unable to 

attend the public meeting and would 

like to participate from a remote 

location, teleconferencing will be 

available. 

Public Participation: This study group 

meeting is open to the public, subject to 

the capacity of the meeting room. 

Access to the building is strictly 

controlled. For pre-clearance purposes,
