Book Interim and Emergency Relief in International Arbitration   International Law Institute Series on International Law  Arbitration and Practice

Download or read book Interim and Emergency Relief in International Arbitration International Law Institute Series on International Law Arbitration and Practice written by Diora Ziyaeva and published by Juris Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interim and Emergency Relief In International Arbitration is a compilation of papers authored by some of the world’s leading international arbitration practitioners. It addresses issues relating to obtaining interim measure orders, including the relevant applicable standards such as irreparable harm that various international courts and tribunals, under the ICSID, UNCITRAL, ICC, SCC, and some domestic law jurisdictions often apply. It also touches upon theoretical and practical issues involving compliance with and enforcement of interim measures in international arbitration. These issues naturally are raised in the context of an ongoing discourse where tribunals have different, at times imperfect tactics for encouraging compliance with their interim measures including drawing adverse inferences, issuing diplomatic statements against a sovereign stopping just short of ordering interim measures, splitting the sum of security for costs and allowing for reimbursement, and levying heavier damages against the non-complying party without changing the substantive aspects of the award. This book explores these methods and identifies the latest trends in this exciting area of international law. Interim and Emergency Relief In International Arbitration is intended for arbitrators, practicing attorneys, representatives of international arbitral institutions and academics, all of whom will find this book very useful. The compilation of papers and presentations in the book cover a number of jurisdictions including East Asia, the Middle East, Europe and North America.

Book Court Subsidiarity and Interim Measures in Commercial Arbitration

Download or read book Court Subsidiarity and Interim Measures in Commercial Arbitration written by Joseph Lee and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The granting of interim measures has a dynamic function in safeguarding the efficacy of arbitration and the effectiveness of the award. Such a function was traditionally reserved to state courts but has gradually been given to, and exercised by, arbitral tribunals based on the principle of party autonomy. Party autonomy, however, is a relative concept and its definition and implementation depend on the legal framework of each state legal system. In the UK and Singapore, the legislation, supported and supplemented by case law, provides arbitral tribunals with an extensive range of powers to grant interim measures both prior to and during the arbitration. The courts have also taken a non-interventionist position aim at facilitating the granting of interim measures by the arbitral tribunal. Such a court-subsidiarity model, brought about by legislation as well as by the courts' approach in favour of arbitration, has spurred “legal innovation” by arbitration institutions to develop their rules in the highly competitive commercial arbitration market. The UK and Singapore appear to tell a success story regarding the court-subsidiarity model, and is reflected in the arbitrators' power to grant interim measures. In Taiwan, the principle of party autonomy has also affected the development of arbitration, in that the power to grant interim measures may be available by the tribunal if parties so agree. Yet the range of interim measures available to arbitrators is limited and does not include freezing injunctions, security for costs, or anti-suit injunctions. A legislative framework affirming the principle of party autonomy as the default position can reduce transaction costs. Court intervention could be framed in a more specific and precise way, thus respecting the autonomy of arbitration. This would allow arbitration institutions in Taiwan to be granted more freedom in developing commercially competitive rules, in order to attract commercial arbitration.

This book was released on 2014-06-01 with total page 956 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first edition of Interim Measures in International Arbitration edited by Lawrence Newman and Dr. Colin Ong, is most auspicious in its timing. The editors have compiled a shrewd and very practical questionnaire and they have gathered together a formidable group of some of the most reputed and talented practising arbitration lawyers, academics and arbitrators from 43 leading jurisdictions to inform the reader about the essential elements of the different interim measures which are available as part of the arbitral process in a very large number of different national jurisdictions. This book, thus, combines the best elements of a focused legal textbook with the essential practicalities of a practitioners' procedural handbook. This should be a standard travelling-companion of international arbitrators and counsel as well as many international lawyers--not just those who are arbitration specialists.

Book Interim Measures in International Commercial Arbitration

Download or read book Interim Measures in International Commercial Arbitration written by Ajar Rab and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2022-08-09 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interim measures by courts as well as tribunals are often critical to succeed in arbitration proceedings and to effectively safeguard the rights of parties pending the final adjudication of their dispute. This important book comprises a comprehensive review of interim measures in international commercial arbitration granted by courts and tribunals across jurisdictions that have adopted the UNCITRAL Model Law to critically assess the practical fault lines in the Indian arbitration regime. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the following: all reported judgments of the Indian Supreme Court and the High Courts from 1993 to 2022 on issues concerning interim measures; practical application of the UNCITRAL Model Law (and the revisions in 2006) by national arbitration statutes of over 80 jurisdictions with respect to interim measures; comparative practice and jurisprudence on interim measures in international commercial arbitration; rules of major arbitral institutions on the power and scope of interim measures granted by tribunals; detailed analysis of different types of interim measures, including anti-suit, anti-arbitration injunctions, security for costs, and interim measures in aid of foreign-seated arbitrations, the standards to be applied, and the burden of proof to be demonstrated for each type of measure; and issues of enforcement of interim measures in domestic, international, and foreign seated arbitrations. The current position of law in India and the problems plaguing the country’s Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996 (IAA), as amended in 2015 with respect to interim measures, are brought into direct comparison with other Model Law jurisdictions, offering an analysis of case laws, practical insights and cogent suggestions based on best practices that can be adopted by parties and tribunals. The Appendices provide a detailed list of statutory provisions of countries that have adopted the Model Law along with rules of major arbitral institutions on interim measures. The author not only describes the current position of law in India and other Model Law jurisdictions on interim measures but also reveals a comprehensive understanding of the requests for interim measures, and their enforcement in domestic, international, and foreign seated arbitrations. This book engages in a comprehensive and clear discussion on the fine line between court assistance and court intervention, especially in the case of interim measures and suggests draft provisions that India and other jurisdictions can adopt in order to align with the 2006 revisions to the Model Law to foster certainty, predictability, and efficiency in case of interim measures in international commercial arbitration.

Book Provisional Measures in International Commercial Arbitration

Download or read book Provisional Measures in International Commercial Arbitration written by Ali Yeşilirmak and published by International Arbitration Law. This book was released on 2005 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the nature of the arbitration process, provisional measures-especially interim protection of rights-tend to play a disproportionate role in international commercial arbitrations. Indeed, the need to clearly define such measures often constitutes the major stumbling block on the path to an effective resolution of a commercial dispute. This concise but enormously useful volume offers practitioners the information and advice they need to overcome this obstacle in the best possible way every time. The Author covers all the relevant avenues of research and practice, from an overview of the concept of provisional measures to an in-depth analysis of the weight and enforceability of such measures. Along the way the treatment covers such crucial topics and issues as the following: scholarly analysis of the problems and uncertainties surrounding provisional measures, and their solutions in light of arbitral and judicial practice; the complex interaction of historical prejudices, political will, and business needs that impact the usefulness of provisional measures; choice of forum to seek provisional measures and the problems associated with such choice; complementary mechanisms to arbitration for interim protection of rights; standards of principles and procedures for the grant of provisional measures; and a comprehensive review of the arbitrators' power to grant provisional measures and court assistance to arbitration. The presentation examines, compares, and analyses seventy sets of arbitration rules on provisional measures (including the arbitration rules of the ICC, AAA, and LCIA), all of the major state laws on commercial arbitration, and detailed analyses of numerous ICC and AAA awards, most of which have not been published before. This new and fully researched book fulfils and important need for user-friendly and complete practical coverage of provisional measures in international commercial arbitration. It wil be of great value to corporate counsel, international lawyers, and business people, as well as to students of dispute resolution.

Book The Notion of Award in International Commercial Arbitration

Download or read book The Notion of Award in International Commercial Arbitration written by Giacomo Marchisio and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2016-04-24 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International commercial arbitration relies extensively on the possibility of enforcing arbitral decisions against recalcitrant parties. Because courts and arbitration laws across the world take contrasting approaches to the definition of awards, such enforcement can be problematic, especially in the context of awards by consent, and the recent development known as ‘emergency arbitration’. In this timely and ground-breaking book, a young arbitration scholar takes us through the difficulties of defining the notion of arbitral award with a rare combination of theoretical awareness and attention to the procedural requirements of arbitral practice. In a framework using a comparative analysis of common law and civil law jurisdictions (specifically, England and France) and how each has regulated in different ways the equilibria between state justice and arbitral justice – and comparing each with the UNCITRAL Model Law – the book addresses such issues as the following: - the ‘judicialization’ of arbitration; - different models of arbitral adjudication and their impact on the notion of award; - what an award needs to contain to be enforceable; - awards on competence; - awards by consent; and - awards ante causam. The author employs a methodology that views arbitration as providing an institution for administering justice rather than as a purely contractual creature. To this end, rules of arbitral institutions (particularly the International Chamber of Commerce) are examined closely for their implications on what an award means. As a fresh look at the arbitral award by placing it in a broader context than is usually found, this book allows for a greater understanding of the functioning of international commercial arbitration. It is sure to become an international reference, and as such will be welcomed by arbitrators, practitioners at global law firms, companies doing transnational business, interested academics, and international arbitration centres in emerging markets.

Book Deference in International Commercial Arbitration

Download or read book Deference in International Commercial Arbitration written by Franco Ferrari and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2023-05-12 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In international arbitration, deference entails that one decision-maker does not make an autonomous assessment but limits its decision-making power out of respect for the decision or authority of another actor. For example, a court exercising post-award review might refrain from reviewing a question of procedure de novo but instead defer to a prior determination made by the arbitral tribunal. In this book, prominent arbitration practitioners and academics offer the first systematic analysis of such deference in international arbitration. With abundant reference to case law from major arbitration hubs, the analysis is organized around the three relationships in which questions of deference arise: public-private relationships in which a State actor (e.g., a court) must decide whether it should pay deference to determinations made by a private actor (e.g., a tribunal or an arbitral institution); public-public relationships in which a State actor (e.g., a court at the place of recognition and enforcement) must decide whether it should pay deference to another State actor (e.g., a court at the seat); and private-private relationships in which a private actor (e.g., an arbitral tribunal) must decide whether it should pay deference to another private actor (e.g., another arbitral tribunal or an arbitral institution). The book makes an important contribution to tracing the boundaries of the multiple layers of control over arbitration proceedings. It takes a giant step towards establishing the right equilibrium between the different layers of authority and thus meeting a pivotal challenge for the viability of arbitration as a form of dispute resolution.

Book Applicable Laws and Standards for Interim Measures in International Arbitration

Download or read book Applicable Laws and Standards for Interim Measures in International Arbitration written by Ikemefuna Stephen Nwoye and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Note examines the grant of interim measures in international arbitration by focusing on the various processes and ways a party would have to comply with or consider when trying to obtain an interim measure. The current debate on the appropriate forum, the applicable law and standards that the tribunal should apply has made the discussion more interesting and invigorating. This has led to calls by some commentators that the regime should be harmonized and a transnational principle that will guide stakeholders should be evolved. This Note considers the power of the court or the arbitrator to order interim measures. It also looks at the ways the applicable law and standards can be ascertained as well as the sources of the applicable and standards, as provided by various arbitral rules (ad hoc and institutional) as well as the evolving transnational principles of law. It concludes by stating that until the harmonization of the various regimes governing the grant of interim or provisional measures is achieved, national laws of the place of arbitration and the place of enforcement cannot be completely excluded from international arbitration and the dreams of a transnational regime will only remain aspirational.

Book Performance as a Remedy

Download or read book Performance as a Remedy written by Michael E. Schneider and published by Juris Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication contains the results of a research project carried out by the Swiss Arbitration Association (ASA) on a question that has received relatively little attention in legal commentary so far: performance as a remedy in international arbitration. Twelve contributions address, by reference to legal theory and to arbitration practice, the question of whether arbitrators can order a party to perform or abstain from performing certain acts (be it in the form of an interim order or in an award on the merits), in what circumstances, and how such orders are made and the issues of procedure and enforcement that they raise. The particular value of the present compilation lies in the diversity of perspectives it presents. A thorough academic introduction of the subject is followed by reports from nine major international arbitral institutions, including the ICC, LCIA, ICDR/AAA as well as WIPO, Swiss, DIS, Vienna and KLRCA that provide a unique insight into their practical experience with performance as a remedy in arbitrations carried out under their auspices. Further, experts in the fields of corporate law, competition law, construction law, sports law, and international trade provide their perspective of performance as a remedy in their respective fields. Performance orders as interim measures are dealt with in a separate chapter. Particular attention is given to some of the difficult questions that arise when awards for non-monetary relief must be enforced. Performance as a Remedy is indispensable in that it provides both analysis and practical guidance on the subject and is a major contribution to the field in this to further particularly challenging area of arbitration law.
