United States Second Circuit

In a suit to enforce an English non-admiralty court's judgment on a derivative contract for future ocean liner rates, the district court's dismissal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction is vacated and remanded where federal courts have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. section 1333 to enforce a judgment of a foreign non-admiralty court if the claim underlying that judgment is maritime under the standards of U.S. law.
