Vietnam: Competition Law Fact Sheet
Overview of the main provisions of the Competition Law, and discussion of the enforcement regime and recent enforcement trends.
New York Law Journal
It is common for defendants facing parallel securities class actions in New York state court and federal court to seek a stay of the state proceedings. Historically, New York state courts have readily deferred to their federal counterparts, agreeing to stay the state action pending the outcome of the federal action, particularly in circumstances where the state complaint was less comprehensive. Two recent Commercial Division cases, however, suggest this approach may be changing, increasing the risk that securities defendants will face active, concurrent litigation in both state and federal court. This column explores these recent developments.

The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR or the Court) recently ruled in Verein KlimaSeniorinnen Schweiz & Ors v. Switzerland (Application No. 53600/20) that Switzerland had breached the European Convention of Human Rights (the Convention) by not taking sufficient action against climate change. In particular, it found a breach of the right to respect for private and family life contained in Article 8 of the Convention, based on Switzerland’s failure to mitigate the impact of climate change on the lives, health, well-being and quality of life of its citizens. It also ruled that Switzerland had breached the right to a fair trial in terms of Article 6, in that the domestic courts failed to examine the merits of the applicants’ complaints, including the scientific evidence. In this article we consider the key features of this landmark judgment, which has wide ramifications for Member States of the Convention.
