| 20 october 2009 Hereby we inform you about a Second Circuit case decided on October 16, 2009, The Shipping Corporation of India Ltd. v. Jaldhi Overseas Pte Ltd., which severely limits the scope of the type of property that may be attached pursuant to Rule B. The Court, in sum and substance, held that “electronic fund transfers (“EFTs”) being processed by an intermediary bank are not property subject to attachment under Rule B.” Since EFTs are no longer considered property of either the originator or the beneficiary, it cannot be “defendant’s property” subject to Rule B attachment.
