Article 10 Recognition and enforcement

1 Any judgement given by a court with jurisdiction in accordance with article 9 which is enforceable in the State of origin where it is no longer subject to ordinary forms of review, shall be recognised in any State Party, except: (a) where the judgement was obtained by fraud; or (b) where the defendant was not given reasonable notice and a fair opportunity to present his or her case.
