Practice question
An international-law memorandum describes act of state, immunity and nonjusticiability as wholly identical concepts because PCGG mentions them together. Which is best?
- The decision identifies distinct avoidance methods; their separate predicates and effects should be examined
- Mentioning concepts together makes them legally interchangeable
- Every immunity question is automatically a decree-validity question
- Every nonjusticiable issue is a foreign criminal conviction
- Only the order of words determines jurisdiction
