Holding: Court said that a conspiracy in the United States to do acts in another
jurisdiction did not draw to itself those acts and make them unlawful, if they
were permitted by the local law. Although the acts were illegal in the United
States, they were permitted by the local law in the foreign jurisdiction at issue.
Notes:
· Court says US doesn’t have jurisdiction b/c it doesn’t fit the territoriality
principle
· Supreme court adds on additional bases of jurisdiction later on (after this
case)
