Definitions of renvoi

English

the process by which a court uses the rules of a foreign jurisdiction with respect to any conflict of laws arising from a claim that involves laws from different jurisdictions (e.g. in a contractual dispute between parties from two different countries)

Most leading experts on private international law acknowledge today that the principle of renvoi cannot be applied to choice of law in contract disputes.
