Hague Convention On International Child Abduction (Report For Congress)

Of the seventy-nine jurisdictions (not including the United States) that are a party to the Hague Convention No. 28 as of May 4, 2004, the United States recognizes fifty-nine jurisdictions as a party; this series of comparative analyses includes reports on forty-nine of those fifty-nine jurisdictions. It also provides a detailed introduction, a discussion of the implications of relevant European Union regulation, analyses on two additional jurisdictions (Belarus and Georgia) not recognized as a party by the United States, a chart that provides the dates for entry into force for the eighty parties, a detailed bibliography, and the text of the Convention.The remaining ten jurisdictions recognized by the United States as a party that are not addressed in this report were omitted, because the Law Library did not have either the expertise on staff or the collections available to prepare a report, or because the party has done very little or nothing to implement the Hague Convention No. 28. Appendix A identifies those parties to the Hague Convention No. 28 that are not covered by this report. It is also important to note that the enclosed report on Denmark was not updated from our previous report of August 2000 because we no longer have a Nordic law specialist on staff.Finally, most reports contain Uniform Resource Locator (URL) references and citations to websites that are not part of the loc.gov domain. These URLs are provided to cite authority to the source of information that we have relied upon to prepare the report and as a convenience for the reader; however, some of these online references may link to subscription services not generally available to the public or may not be maintained by the originators.
