Virginia Code Title 8.01. Civil Remedies and Procedure § 8.01-465.13:6. Effect of recognition of foreign-country judgment

Current as of January 01, 2020 | Updated by FindLaw Staff

If the court in a proceeding under § 8.01-465.13:5 finds that the foreign-country judgment is entitled to recognition under this chapter then, to the extent that the foreign-country judgment grants or denies recovery of a sum of money, the foreign-country judgment is:

1. Conclusive between the parties to the same extent as the judgment of a sister state entitled to full faith and credit in the Commonwealth would be conclusive;  and

2. Enforceable in the same manner and to the same extent as a judgment rendered in the Commonwealth.
