GE ENERGY POWER CONVERSION FRANCE SAS 
v. OUTOKUMPU STAINLESS USA, LLC 
Opinion of the Court 

Because the Court of Appeals concluded that the Conven-
tion prohibits enforcement by nonsignatories, the court did
not determine whether GE Energy could enforce the arbi-
tration  clauses  under  principles  of  equitable  estoppel  or 
which body of law governs that determination.  Those ques-
tions can be addressed on remand.  We hold only that the 
New  York  Convention  does  not  conflict  with  the  enforce-
ment of arbitration agreements by nonsignatories under do-
mestic-law equitable estoppel doctrines. 

* 

* 
For the foregoing reasons, we reverse the judgment of the
Court of Appeals and remand the case for further proceed-
ings consistent with this opinion. 

* 

It is so ordered.
