The United States became a party to the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction (the 'Convention') on July 1, 1988. This was the effective date of its implementing legislation, the International Child Abduction Remedies Act (ICARA), 42 U.S.C. ' 11601 et seq.
Hague Article 13b
With only 20 years of U.S. case law on the Convention, any new American case ' especially at the federal appellate level ' attracts the attention and interest of 'Hague' lawyers in this country. <i>Simcox v. Simcox</i>, handed down on Dec. 28, 2007, is no exception.
