Contracts
Transnational contract was formed under Convention by agreement by the parties, and subsequent inclusion of attorney's fees by one party did not become a binding modification, as it was not mirrored or acknowledged in the return invoice or communications.
Attorney's statement that something had been admitted and was in the record isn't sufficient basis for waiver of claim.
Not raising issue of waiver until the reply brief waived the issue of prior default.
