Question:
4. Justice Ginsburg’s dissent relied extensively on the legislative history to the New York rule. In ascertaining the meaning and purpose of a state rule, is a court sitting in diversity obliged to follow the state’s approach to interpreting legislative history, or can it use a different federal approach? Does either the Rules of Decision Act or the Rules Enabling Act speak to this question? See p. 474, infra; see also Campos, Erie as a Choice of Enforcement Defaults, 64 Fla. L. Rev. 1573 (2012) (Erie can encourage dialogue between the states and Congress on the substantive implications of procedural rules).
