A related practice has developed in the United States, where victims of human-rights crimes committed elsewhere file civil suits against immigrant perpetrators. In a substantial number of cases since the early 1980’s, US courts have ordered the defendants to pay compensation to the victims.
美国也采取了相关行动，他国人权犯罪的受害者对移民美国的施暴者提起民事诉讼。自20世纪80年代初以来的大量案件中，美国法院判决施害者向受害者提供补偿。
