Practice question
Assume the UN General Convention governs. In a particular civil case, the United Nations expressly waives immunity from adjudication but does not consent to execution. After winning, the claimant treats the adjudicatory waiver as sufficient to seize UN assets. Which section 2 rule resolves the argument?
- The waiver from legal process in the case does not extend to a measure of execution.
- The judgment automatically transfers ownership of all UN assets.
- Any waiver necessarily permits all future seizures.
- Juridical personality makes section 2 irrelevant.
- A private creditor can waive execution immunity unilaterally.
