Trey Childress has co-authored an article on “Challenging and Enforcing International Arbitral Awards in U.S. Federal Courts: An Empirical Study”, recently published in the Virginia Journal of International Law.

The article analyses an empirical study that assesses the rate at which U.S. federal courts give effect to international arbitral awards. Based on the data, the article concludes that U.S. federal courts are more likely than previously reported by other empirical studies to give effect to international arbitral awards.

Trey co-authored the article alongside Christopher R. Drahozal (The University of Kansas School of Law), Jack J. Coe, Jr. (Pepperdine University School of Law), and Catherine A. Rogers (Bocconi University).
