SB2488

Tennessee SB2488 prohibits the enforcement of arbitration awards and court rulings based on foreign law that violates U.S.

Tennessee SB2488 amends Tennessee Code to ensure that arbitration awards cannot be enforced if they rely on foreign law that would violate U.S. or Tennessee constitutional rights. It also prevents courts, arbitration panels, and administrative agencies from basing decisions on foreign law that would infringe on these constitutional protections. The bill does not affect the recognition of foreign judgments or contracts that comply with constitutional protections, nor does it interfere with the application of tribal law, federal law, or the uniform commercial code.
