OPINION & ORDER re: (373 in 1:08-cv-10934-KBF, 108 in 1:09-cv-00166-KBF, 107 in 1:09-cv-00165-KBF) MOTION for Partial Summary Judgment Against the Assa Defendants filed by Abraham Mandelson, Stuart E. Hersh, Elena Rozenman, Abraham Mendelson, Deborah Rubin, Renay Fryn, Tzvi Rosenman, Elana Rozenman, Tzvi Rozenman, Noam Rozenman, Daniel Miller, Jenny Rubin, Noan Rozenman, Renay Frym. For the reasons set forth above, the Rubin, Beer, Kirschenbaum, Greenbaum, and Acosta plaintiffs' motion for partial summary judgment is GRANTED. Specifically, the Court finds that the Assa Defednants' assets are "blocked assets" as defined in § 201 of TRIA and that the Assa Defendants' assets constitute "blocked assets" o f Bank Melli, an instrumentality of Iran. As such, the Assa Defendants' interests in the 650 Properties are subject to execution by judgment creditors in possession of valid terrorism-based judgments against Iran. However, the Court does not mak e any factual findings as to the validity or priority of the various judgment creditors' private judgments. Nor does it make any findings of fact as regards the Assa Defendants for the purposes of the Government's civil forfeiture action; t he Court takes no position as to how, if at all, the Government's standard of proof as regards the Assa Defendants differs from that of the private plaintiffs. The Clerk of Court is directed to close the motions at ECF No. 373 in 08 Civ. 10934, ECF No. 107 in 09 Civ. 165, and ECF No. 108 in 09 Civ. 166. (Signed by Judge Katherine B. Forrest on 6/6/2013) (mro)
