Goss International Corporation v. Man Roland Druckmachinen Aktiengesellschaft
United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
491 F.3d 355 (2007)
Goss (plaintiff) won and collected on a $35 million antidumping judgment against TKS (defendant) under the U.S. Antidumping Act of 1916, which Congress later repealed only as to future filings; Japan then enacted a Special Measures Law letting Japanese companies sue in Japan to reclaim money paid under such U.S. antidumping judgments, and Goss sought to enjoin TKS from using that Japanese law to recover its payment, obtaining a preliminary injunction from the district court.
Whether an injunction to prevent a party from filing suit in a foreign jurisdiction should be issued only if the jurisdiction or policy of the United States is threatened, and domestic interests outweigh the interests of international comity.
