Foley Hoag Attorney Ofilio Mayorga to Speak at Colloquium on International Investment Law and the Law of Armed Conflict
October 03, 2017
Foley Hoag LLP associate Ofilio Mayorga will be a featured speaker at the Colloquium on International Investment Law & the Law of Armed Conflict, being held October 5-6, 2017 at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens in Greece.
Mayorga’s presentation, “Arbitration of Disputes Under State Contracts in Times of Military Occupation,” will discuss the status of pre-war State contracts in occupied territories and the extent to which a foreign investor may invoke the jurisdiction of an arbitral tribunal to hold an Occupying Power liable for the breach of a pre-war contract.
As a member of Foley Hoag’s International Litigation and Arbitration Department, Mayorga’s practice focuses on State-State and investor-State disputes before the world's principal dispute resolution bodies, including the International Court of Justice (ICJ), ICSID and the Permanent Court of Arbitration.
The Colloquium on International Investment Law & the Law of Armed Conflict is jointly organized by the AthensPIL of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens Faculty of Law (Greece); the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS); the Research Centre on Procurement Law and International Investment (CREDIMI) of the University of Burgundy (France) and the Faculty of Law of the University of Zaragoza (Spain).
