US Disclosure Orders under S.1782 U.S.C. – A New Weapon in Russian-Relates Disputes?![]() Dominic Pellew ![]() George Utlik Section 1782 U.S.C. allows parties to legal proceedings outside the US (including arbitration proceedings) to seek orders from US courts for discovery and/or deposition evidence from parties/witnesses located in the US, in support of that foreign proceeding. It is highly controversial because you can’t normally get discovery or depositions in arbitration, yet that doesn’t stop the US courts ordering it.
