The Federal Law is aimed at improving the legal regulation of the execution of foreign court rulings involving the confiscation of criminal proceeds located in the Russian Federation.
Specifically, the Federal Law stipulates that disposal of property confiscated under a foreign court order or ruling shall comply with a respective international treaty signed by the Russian Federation or, in the absence of such treaty, with the general enforcement rules for court ordered confiscation as set forth in the Federal Law On Enforcement Proceedings.
