U.S. high court declines to hear appeal in Argentina bond dispute

U.S. high court declines to hear appeal in Argentina bond dispute

WASHINGTON | Mon Oct 7, 2013 9:40am EDT
Oct 7 (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear a preliminary appeal filed byArgentina over its battle with hedge funds that refused to take part in two debt restructurings that sprang from the country's 2002 default.

The court's decision means it will not at this time review an October 2012 ruling by the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York in which the court said the Argentine government had broken a contractual obligation to treat bondholders equally. The Supreme Court's refusal to get involved means litigation in lower courts continues, with Argentina able to seek high court review again at a later date when there is a final ruling in the appeals court.
