United States Seventh Circuit
EXTRA EQUIPAMENTOS E EXPORTACAO LTDA. v. CASE CORP., 03-2863
District judge's determination that defendant's wholly owned Brazilian subsidiary is an indispensable party to this suit is reversed and remanded; the weight a Brazilian court would give a US judgment in plaintiff's favor, and the significance of defendant's sole ownership of the subsidiary, are conspicuous loose ends in her analysis of indispensability.
