What was the background to the decision?
In a recent decision, Corporacion Mexicana de Matenimiento
Integral, S De RL De CV v Pemex-Exploracion y Produccion, No
13-4022 (2d Cir Aug 2, 2016), the US Court of Appeals for the
Second Circuit affirmed a district court decision recognising an
arbitral award that had been set aside by a court in Mexico, where
the arbitration was seated. In doing so, the court added to a small
but growing list of international decisions en-forcing annulled
awards. At the same time, the court reinforced a restrictive
approach to the issue of enforc-ing annulled awards not seen in
decisions by courts from other jurisdictions.
