With its decision in Alfred Dunhill of London, Inc. v. Republic of Cuba, the Supreme Court has, for the third time in twelve years, rendered a significant if not landmark ruling on the act of state doctrine. Before 1964 the Court had not decided a case involving that doctrine for more than twenty years.

Nederlandsche-Amerikaansche, etc., was decided by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York.
