 The recognition and enforcement of a foreign judgment in the United States is generally based on principles of comity, or the respect of one sovereign nation for the laws, judicial decisions, and institutions of another.In the United States, there is a presumption that all foreign judgments are subject to recognition and enforcement. However, federal courts look carefully at the circumstances surrounding any such judgment and the process of domesticating a foreign judgment can be fraught with difficulty. |
