Summary

This document is a page from a legal reporter (349 Federal Supplement, 2d Series) containing headnotes (summaries of legal points) 96 through 102. The text details legal rulings regarding the Antiterrorism Act (ATA) and civil lawsuits filed by survivors of the September 11, 2001, attacks against various financial institutions and companies in Saudi Arabia and Egypt.
