Dispute Settlement
NAFTA - Chapter 11 - Investment
Cases Filed Against the United Mexican States
Marvin Roy Feldman Karpa (CEMSA) v. United Mexican States
Marvin Feldman, a U.S. citizen, submitted a claim on behalf of CEMSA, a registered foreign trading company and exporter of cigarettes from Mexico, in April 1999. CEMSE alleged that the denial of benefits of a law that allowed certain tax refunds to exporters breached Mexico's obligations under Chapter Eleven of the North American Free Trade Agreement.
On December 16, 2002, the tribunal issued an Award dismissing the investor's claim of expropriation but upholding the claim of a violation of the national treatment obligation.
