Assuming that Belarus is a party to the Hague Convention (which I sort of think that it is), your U.S. judgment is enforcible in Belarus just as it is here. The Hague Convention requires that legitimate judgments obtained in member countries be enforced in all other member countries.
So the answer to your question is simple: you take your U.S. judgment to a Belarus court and then Belarus enforces it.
Hooray! We have a winner! I’m not sure to what degree the Hague Convention is implicated (that would require the level of legal research I’ve discussed above), but your answer is correct because both Belarus and the United States are signatories to the Convention establishing the World Intellectual Property Organization.
No UN vans? Idiots all over this thread are deeply saddened.
“So the answer to your question is simple: you take your U.S. judgment to a Belarus court and then Belarus enforces it.”
I think you meant to send that to rudeboy1, as that was his question. The answer you provided is what he was hoping to hear from someone, but not from me, not a chance.
If I were Belarus, I’d tell the US to stuff it if they showed up wanting to enforce a US court order. Ahhhh, but they signed treaties and are “bound” by them one would suspect. Belarus, with our help no less has signed all sorts of treaties and do a great job of screwing Putin over every chance they get in the oil/energy trade sector. Good for them I say.
The fact that you answered that the way you did is actually very good for most people to read. It’s a perfect example of what the US and so very many other countries have done, which is to turn its own Soverignty into a Liability, rather than capitalizing on it as an asset. More people do indeed need to be aware that signing the treaties we’ve signed has done a hell of lot more to put us at risk than they have to strengthen us as a nation IMO.
Thanks again for your comments.
Assuming that the cease-and-desist order was issued for an issue of trademark or copyright covered by the Hague Convention. Which is probably something you'd have to litigate in Belarus, though you might get a TRO (temporary restraining order) while the case is pending.
Of course, if your miscreant is really determined, he''l just set up mirror sites in Myanmar,, South Africa, and God knows where. There's always an international porn or spam haven that doesn't know or care enough to police online content and where you can host your site anonymously because they don't bother to check the contract info.
