The US District Court for the Southern District of Florida continues to strongly favor recognizing and enforcing international arbitration awards, especially when the award debtor hasn't acted within three months. Recent cases in the Southern District of Florida limit the time to raise defenses under Article V of the New York Convention, further strengthening the award creditor’s position. A recent decision, Noble Prestige Ltd. v. Horn, emphasizes that failing to act within three months precludes raising Article V defenses. This development makes the Southern District of Florida a strategic venue for award creditors. https://1l.ink/KXPWBZV #southerndistrictofflorida #usdistrictcourt

Walt Disney Parks and Resorts is attempting to move a wrongful death lawsuit into arbitration, arguing that the plaintiff, Jeffrey Piccolo, waived his right to a jury trial by signing up for a Disney+ trial in 2019. Piccolo is suing for the death of his wife, Kanokporn Tangsuan, who died from a severe allergic reaction after dining at a restaurant in Disney Springs. Disney's legal team claims that the arbitration agreement from the Disney+ sign-up applies, while Piccolo's lawyer argues this is "outrageously unreasonable."
