Phew! Glad I got this one right.

Your understanding turns out to be correct. Page 9 of Petro’s opposition states: “BCI admits … the December 29, 2020 receipt of a letter rogatory from the Superior Court of Justice in Brazil. … The letter … contains a website link for obtaining the case documents. … Process is typically served in Brazil by such letters with website links to case documents.” (The opposition is now available gratis to everybody thanks to the miracle of RECAP.)

As for actual substance, I don’t really have any commentary to add. Your critique of the court’s decision makes sense to me. I’d just note that the opinion seems fairly rushed and terse. For barely covering five pages, it also has multiple typos.

In conclusion, Happy New Year!
