2021 Tennessee Code|Title 26 - Execution|Chapter 6 - Enforcement of Foreign Judgments|Part 1 - Uniform Enforcement of Foreign Judgments Act|§ 26-6-108. Foreign Defamation Judgments

  For the purposes of this section only, a “foreign defamation judgment” shall mean any judgment for a cause of action equivalent or fundamentally similar to an action for libel or slander that is rendered by a court or tribunal outside the United States or its territories or possessions. This section shall not apply to any judgment for defamation, slander or libel rendered by a federal court or a court or tribunal in this or any other state of the United States, its territories or possessions.   In addition to any other defenses that may exist, no foreign defamation judgment shall be authenticated, or execution issued upon, if:  It is determined that the judgment was rendered by a judicial system that does not provide impartial tribunals or procedures substantially compatible with the requirements of due process of law applicable to Tennessee courts;   The court or tribunal issuing the foreign defamation judgment did not have personal jurisdiction over the defendant in accordance with the principles applicable under Tennessee law; or   The court or tribunal issuing the foreign defamation judgment did not have subject matter jurisdiction over the action.     A foreign defamation judgment shall not be authenticated by any court of this state until it is established by a preponderance of the evidence that the defamation, libel or slander law applied in the foreign defamation court's jurisdiction provides the same or higher protection for freedom of speech and press as would be provided under both the United States and Tennessee Constitutions. If it is determined that the law in the foreign defamation judgment's jurisdiction provides such same or greater protection, then the court may proceed to consider if the judgment may be authenticated as a foreign judgment. If it is determined that the law in the foreign defamation judgment's jurisdiction does not provide such same or greater protection, or if no finding is made on this point, then the court may not authenticate that foreign defamation judgment and the same shall be void until such time as the court may make or reverse its findings.

  Except as otherwise provided in subsections (b) and (c), a court of this state shall recognize a foreign-country judgment to which this part applies.   A court of this state may not recognize a foreign-country judgment if:  The judgment was rendered under a judicial system that does not provide impartial tribunals or procedures compatible with the requirements of due process of law;   The foreign court did not have personal jurisdiction over the defendant; or   The foreign court did not have jurisdiction over the subject matter.     A court of this state need not recognize a foreign-country judgment if:  The defendant in the proceeding in the foreign court did not receive notice of the proceeding in sufficient time to enable the defendant to defend;   The judgment was obtained by fraud that deprived the losing party of an adequate opportunity to present its case;   The judgment or the cause of action on which the judgment is based is repugnant to the public policy of this state or of the United States;   The judgment conflicts with another final and conclusive judgment;   The proceeding in the foreign court was contrary to an agreement between the parties under which the dispute in question was to be determined otherwise than by proceedings in that foreign court;   In the case of jurisdiction based only on personal service, the foreign court was a seriously inconvenient forum for the trial of the action;   The judgment was rendered in circumstances that raise substantial doubt about the integrity of the rendering court with respect to the judgment;   The specific proceeding in the foreign court leading to the judgment was not compatible with the requirements of due process of law; or   The foreign jurisdiction where the judgment was rendered would not give recognition to a similar judgment rendered in this state.     A party resisting recognition of a foreign-country judgment has the burden of establishing that a ground for nonrecognition stated in subsection (b) or (c) exists.
