Read More Arbitration News UK | Arbitration Act 1996 - s68 challenge | "[M]istakes will occur even in the practices of the best of arbitrators", said Sir John Donaldson MR in The Montan [1985] 1 WLR 625, 632, commenting on what he described as the serious error which the arbitrator had accidentally made in that case. That is what has happened here: a tribunal of leading arbitrators made the sort of simple mistake any of us can make - which because of the circumstances described below they did not realise - but with the most unfortunate consequences" Read More Read More Brazil | Halliburton with a Brazilian Twist: Supreme Court assistance on the hot topics of conflicts of interest and arbitrator’s duties Read More EU | Uncertainties in Intra-EU arbitration under the ECT: Belgium seeks an opinion from the Court of Justice of the European Union Read More Singapore & Hong Kong | Amendments to Singapore's International Arbitration Act to Enhance Statutory Regime Read More India | Interim measures and enforcement of foreign arbitral award between two Indian parties Read More Mediation News Discussion | Consider Mediation "matters seem to have grown from such small seeds. Litigation inevitably makes that worse. I strongly recommend mediation or even a binding ADR process as to remaining issues...I will conclude this judgment by noting that disputes of this sort may well be suitable for lower cost forms of online resolution possibly out of court, either now or in the near future involving decisions and discussion, (probably in a case such as this assisted by lawyers in resolving the construction aspects), alongside software to assist issue-identification and pre-trial steps to enable parties to do as much as they can for themselves. If that were to become the trend it would reduce the high stakes caused by legal expenses and perhaps aid relationships among neighbours. In the modernising legal system one hopes that such fallings-out will be less painful when resolved away from formal court settings. The courts themselves have limited resources" MASTER VICTORIA MCCLOUD - Read more: Read More Covid19 support | Prime Dispute has removed the 'Case Submission Fee' for all Mediation cases Read More Global | Commercial Mediation training courses Read More Models | What are the 4 Models of Mediation?

The jurisdictional error was critical to the determination of the dispute. The excluded loss and expense claims were material to the true valuation of Interim Applications 27 and the amount of any payment due between GSEL and Sudlows" Read More Overview | What is Adjudication?
