November 14, 2011 ALIAS Summons Issued as to Defendant Bundesrepublik Deutscheland. (ym)
November 2, 2011 Filing 323 MINUTE entry before Honorable Edmond E. Chang: In light of the continued pendency of the dispositive motions, the status hearing of 11/03/11 is reset to 12/21/11 at 9:00 a.m. Additionally, Plaintiffs' motion to deem service on Defendant Deutsche Bundesbank #317 is denied without prejudice. As discussed in the most recent opinion, R. 315 at 15, the German National Bank has disputed (through a motion to quash filed in Germany) the service of process through the Central Authority in Germany. The Hague Convention does not dictate a specific method by which the Central Authority must serve process. Rather, the internal law of the forum state defines the applicable method. See Volkswagenwerk Aktiengesellschaft v. Schlunk, 486 U.S. 694, 698-99 (1988). Once the Central Authority properly serves the documents, it must provide a certificate of service that conforms to a specified model. 20 U.S.T. 362, T.I.A.S. 6638, Art. 6. Plaintiff has not yet received the certificate of service from Germany's Central Authority, perhaps because the German National Bank has filed, in Germany, the motion to quash service. For now, the Court will await the ruling on that motion, and denies Plaintiffs' motion without prejudice to a later re-filing -- at some point, the delay in decision may warrant either considering a ruling to deem service effectuated under 28 U.S.C. 1608(b)(2), or a finding that service "cannot be made" under (b)(1) or (b)(2), and thus an alternative method of service should be permitted under 1608(b)(3).Mailed notice (slb, )
