Can anyone point me to some recourses that talk about how to domesticate a foreign judgment in the eastern district of New York? I can’t get a sample from Westlaw or anything.

When you say foreign do you mean another state or foreign country? Assuming you mean foreign country then you would look to the UFMJRA. It is adopted in New York as CPLR Article 53. My firm specializes in this kind of work if you are looking for another firm to handle. Otherwise, you will be able to find a lot articles / caselaw if you look into the UFMJRA / Article 53. Probably a practical law out there too.

If you are not experienced in this, your instinct to get co counsel is a good one. It’s very routine for firms that regularly do this, but easy to mess up if you haven’t.

Source: am also at a firm that regularly does this & disputes whether we or the other party did this correctly.

Does anyone know if this is normal? I joined a vault 100 firm in September last year. The firm put me on tier 7. In January I had the associate review and everything was normal.

The partner said because I joined the firm later in the year, it’s normal not to advance in the next year. Is it? Thanks!
