Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act
Read a random definition: allocutus
A quick definition of Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act:
The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act (FSIA) is a law that allows people to sue foreign governments in certain situations. This law only applies to cases where the claim is related to the private actions of the foreign government, not their public actions. The FSIA was created because more and more Americans were doing business with foreign governments and companies, and there needed to be a way to resolve disputes in American courts.
A more thorough explanation:
The Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act (FSIA) is a federal law that allows individuals to sue foreign governments under certain circumstances. This law applies to private acts of foreign states, not public ones.
For example, if a foreign government owns a business in the United States and that business harms someone, the person can sue the foreign government under the FSIA. However, if the foreign government is acting in its official capacity, such as making a decision about foreign policy, it is protected by sovereign immunity and cannot be sued.
The FSIA was created in 1976 to provide a way for American citizens and companies to resolve disputes with foreign states and their entities. It allows for access to federal and state courts in the United States for plaintiffs asserting claims against foreign states and instrumentalities thereof.
