Global Connection – May 2013
Dear Friend of Snell & Wilmer,
International trade is critical to our global economy and importers and exporters should stay apprised of new developments, restrictions and potential pitfalls to ensure they remain in compliance with a myriad of laws and regulations.
This edition of the Global Connection offers special insight into trade concerns, including a top ten list of information that exporters should know and advice on avoiding and coping with U.S. customs detention and seizure of counterfeit electronic components. It also includes new developments in U.S. immigration enforcement and compliance, information on DOJ enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decision invalidating a $45 million class action settlement, and an update on U.S. iGaming expansion.
