BEFORE: HENDERSON, ROGERS and KAVANAUGH, Circuit Judges.

ORDER

It is ORDERED by the court that the opinion filed by the court on June 5, 2012 be amended as follows:

On page 7, line 25, replace

“with the Royal Family”

with

“on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia or a political subdivision thereof”

On pages 7-8, footnote 6, line 7 (on page 8), insert “against the individual defendants” between “action” and “ ‘should.’ ”

On page 9, line 13, replace

“defendant Royal Family”

with

“Kingdom of Saudi Arabia”

On page 9, lines 16-18, replace

“suit against Royal Family as suit against Kingdom of Saudi Arabia or one of its political subdivisions”

On page 9, line 18, add the following footnote 7 after “supra note 6."

7

To be clear, we express no opinion whether the Royal Family is equivalent to

the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia or a political subdivision thereof. We understand

Angellino’s complaint to seek relief from, inter alia, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia or

a political subdivision thereof, service of which is governed by section 1608(a). See

Appellant’s Br. at 18-20 (action “[was] [b]rought [a]gainst the Defendants as [a]

Foreign State”); Erickson v. Pardus, 551 U.S. 89, 94 (2007) (pro se filing “is to be

liberally construed” (quotation marks omitted)).

On page 9, lines 20-21, delete “on the defendant Royal Family”

On page 10, line 11, replace

“Royal Family members”

with

“Kingdom of Saudi Arabia”

On page 13, lines 23-24, replace

“defendant Royal Family”

with

“Kingdom of Saudi Arabia”
