Time:  12:00 noon Eastern

Location:  Webinar (connection details provided upon registration)

Non-U.S. companies are routinely sued in the U.S. over disputes principally or exclusively involving their U.S. subsidiaries. In many instances, these non-U.S. companies should not even have their cases litigated in U.S. courts, and this webinar will explore strategies and arguments by which they can seek dismissal at the outset of a case. We will address three principal subjects:

• Limits on the geographic applicability of U.S. IP, securities, antitrust, RICO, anti-corruption and sanctions laws to conduct occurring in other countries
• Limits on the ability of a U.S. court to assert "personal jurisdiction" over non-U.S. defendants  
• Risk minimization steps

All three topics will be addressed from the unique standpoint of non-U.S. companies that must separate themselves from the conduct of their subsidiaries.

The one-hour webinar will take place on Thursday, April 18 at 12:00 noon Eastern. Attendees will have the opportunity to present written questions throughout the presentation. The webinar will also be recorded and available for viewing at any time on Orrick's The World in U.S. Courts homepage.
