MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
SPRIZZO, District Judge.
The present controversy involves the effect that a Singapore court’s order dismissing a claim and granting costs has on a subsequent action brought in this Court between the same parties on the same causes of action. Because Singapore law would deem this action precluded, and because New York law would recognize and enforce .the Singapore judgment for costs, this- Court grants defendants’ motions for summary judgment.
