 "Loot" can mean many things to many people: a Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton seized by the US government and turned over to Mongolia, to a vast trove of "degenerate" art, now worth billions, which was stolen (maybe?) by the Nazis and only discovered (perhaps?) last year. Learn about recent New York Court of Appeals and federal cases to ensure you and your clients buy art or artifacts without having to "Scream".
