Hamilton Bank Redux We have talked before about the lawsuit by Hamilton Bank against Sri Lanka, noting that Hamilton Bank is trying to avoid the effect of a restructuring. Once it gets a judgment, it will have a claim to be paid in full despite any subsequent modification of the bond. Sri Lanka seems to know this and has been raising plausible but weak legal arguments in an apparent attempt to delay the case. Now the government has outright asked the court to stay the lawsuit (though without explicitly saying what it is concerned about). We are skeptical the judge will grant an outright stay, but perhaps there is room for a little foot dragging...? Producer: Leanna Doty
