This dispositive Order from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia addresses post-judgment motions concerning the enforcement of a judgment held by Blasket Renewable Investments, LLC against the Kingdom of Spain. The central issue is the propriety and timing of enforcement and related discovery against a sovereign judgment debtor. The Court's ruling, based on a contemporaneously issued Memorandum Opinion, resolves the immediate question of enforcement in favor of the judgment creditor.

The Court granted Blasket's motion for relief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1610(c) and 28 U.S.C. § 1963. This ruling authorizes Blasket to immediately commence execution and attachment proceedings to enforce its judgment against Spain and to register that judgment in other U.S. federal districts. Concurrently, the Court denied Spain's cross-motion seeking to stay enforcement of the judgment and to halt post-judgment discovery proceedings.

However, the Court deferred consideration of Spain's motions to quash specific third-party subpoenas, including those directed to its legal counsel. As an operative directive, the Court ordered the parties to meet and confer to resolve the outstanding discovery disputes and to submit a Joint Status Report outlining any remaining issues and proposing a path forward for their resolution. This bifurcates the general right to enforce from the resolution of specific, contested discovery mechanisms.
