Section 1782 of Title 28 of the United States Code (“Section 1782”) is a statute that can be utilized to provide international litigants with “U.S.-Style” discovery from individuals and entities located in the United States for use in foreign proceedings.  It is a powerful tool that has been described by federal judges as international litigants’ “weapon of choice.”
