Court filing on FSIA and jurisdiction issues in 9/11 survivor lawsuits
Court filing on FSIA and jurisdiction issues in 9/11 survivor lawsuits The document merely outlines procedural and jurisdictional arguments under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act and Antiterrorism Act, without revealing any new factual leads, financial flows, or involvement of high‑profile individuals beyond a generic reference to the Saudi Director of General Intelligence. Key insights: Survivors attempted but failed to state a cause of action against banks under the ATA.; Survivors filed a cause of action against a bank chairman under the ATA.; The case discusses de novo review of dismissals and the applicable law (Second Circuit vs. D.C. law).
