SCOTUS Case on Section 1782 Discovery and Arbitration Is off the Argument Calendar
The Supreme Court has removed Servotronics, Inc. v. Rolls-Royce PLC, from its oral argument calendar. As covered earlier here, the case would have addressed “[w]hether the discretion granted to district courts in 28 U.S.C. §1782(a) to render assistance in gathering evidence for use in ‘a foreign or international tribunal’ encompasses private commercial arbitral tribunals.”
Today, petitioner’s counsel filed a letter indicating that it will be filing a Rule 46 dismissal motion.
