Caballero v. Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia, — F.3d —, 2019 WL 7204932 (10th Cir. Dec. 27, 2019)

The Tenth Circuit held as a matter of first impression that 28 U.S.C. § 1963 applies only to registration of federal court judgments in federal courts—not to state court judgments.  Accordingly, the court reversed the district court’s judgment registering a Florida state judgment in Utah federal court.
