US may get involved in Argentina dispute over $16.1 billion YPF judgment
NEW YORK, Sept 9 (Reuters) -The U.S. government said on Monday it may get involved in a dispute over whether Argentina should give up its 51% stake in oil and gas company YPF YPFDm.BA to help satisfy a $16.1 billion court judgment.
In a filing with the U.S. District Court in Manhattan, the U.S. Department of Justice said it is "actively considering" whether to file a so-called statement of interest in the case.
Such statements can be filed when a dispute touches on the U.S. government's sovereign interests. Monday's filing did not say why the U.S. government believes it might have an interest in the YPF case.
The judgment arose from Argentina's 2012 decision to seize the 51% YPF stake held by Spain's Repsol REP.MC without tendering for shares held by minority investors.
Argentina has been appealing U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska's decision last September to award two investors the $16.1 billion.
The litigation funder Burford Capital BURF.L, which is suing on the investors' behalf, is expected to receive 35% and 73% of their respective damages.
It asked Preska in April to force Argentina to cede the YPF stake to partially satisfy that judgment.
The Justice Department said it should know whether to file a statement of interest by Nov. 6, the day after the U.S. elections. It asked Preska to wait for its decision before deciding whether Argentina must turn over its YPF stake.
Argentina, Burford and YPF did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The U.S. Attorney's Office in Manhattan, which submitted Monday's filing, did not immediately respond to similar requests.
