28 U.S.C. § 1738. - State and Territorial statutes and judicial
proceedings; full faith and credit
...
The records and judicial proceedings of any court of any such State,
Territory or Possession, or copies thereof, shall be proved or admitted
in other courts within the United States and its Territories and
Possessions

in the courts of such State, Territory or Possession from which they
are
taken.
