Question:

Technology Incubation and Entrepreneurship Training Society (TIETS) is an association made up of members of a local community in India. TIETS contracted with Mandana Farhang, a resident of California, to develop and market certain technology. Later, Farhang filed a suit against TIETS in a U.S. court, claiming breach of contract when the defendant “abandoned all efforts to further the technology.” Assuming that TIETS qualifies a “foreign state,” is it immune from Farhang’s suit under the doctrine of sovereign immunity? Why or why not? [Farhang v. Indian Institute of Technology, ___F.Supp.2d ___ (N.D.Cal. 2012)]
