Bibliographic record
Abstract
After default judgment was entered against People's Republic of China(PRC) in parent's prod-ucts liability action for death of their son due to allegedly defective semi-automatic rifle,parents served restraining notices and subpoenas on New York branches of Chinese banks to forbid sale or transfer PRC assets.Banks filed motion to vacate the restraining orders and quash the subpoenas.The District Court,Sidney H.Stein,J.,held that assets were located outside the United States.The FSIA provides no exception to the PRC's sovereign immunity that would justify that procedure.This article comments on the defence arguments for Chinese government on its sovereign immunity,the advantages or disadvantage for the Chinese state-owned company to claim the sovereign immunity,the execution of a default judgment on the Chinese government to the property of the Chinese state-owed company.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
