James Hosking Completes Stay as ITAM Visiting Professor in Mexico City

July 2018 – Chaffetz Lindsey partner James Hosking recently completed a stay as a Visiting Professor at the Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México (ITAM) in Mexico City.  ITAM has one of the leading private law schools in Mexico.  During his stay James taught a module on setting aside, recognition and enforcement of international arbitration awards, as part of the Commercial Arbitration course coordinated by Professor Hector Flores Sentíes.  While much of the course focused on arbitration awards in UNCITRAL jurisdictions such as Mexico, James was also able to draw on his US experience and the work of colleagues Andreas Frischknecht, Yasmine Lahlou and Gretta Walters in their recently published treatise “Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards and Judgments in New York” (Kluwer, 2018).
