Description

Online arbitration is different from traditional arbitration. The common thought that online arbitration is just the combination of online mechanisms and traditional arbitration is not true. The main thesis of this article is that online arbitration is different from traditional arbitration not only because it is held online or partly online but also because its definition elements may vary from those of traditional arbitration definition. The article aims to provide an inclusive and precise definition of online arbitration and extract different types of online arbitration from the definition accordingly. In order to define online arbitration accurately, it is helpful to look closely at the component elements of traditional arbitration from which it evolved. Naturally, there is much commonality across the two forms, but also relevant differences in the detail of component elements of both. Moreover, some component elements may not be shared at all, belonging uniquely to just one form of arbitration. A study of the component elements of both forms is therefore necessary to provide a definition of online arbitration.

Without a valid arbitration agreement, no arbitration can take place or award can be rendered. In other words, a valid arbitration agreement is the cornerstone of any arbitration proceedings. Townsend, J.M., Drafting Arbitration Clauses: Avoiding the 7 Deadly Sins, Dispute Resolution Journal, 2003, p. 1.

The Scope of the Clause. This section of the clause is critical; it sets the boundaries for which disputes the tribunal is authorised to determine. Choice of Rules. The Number of Arbitrators. Appointing Authority. Choice of Venue. The language of the proceedings. Finality. Exclusion of the right of appeal.

However, the Texas Supreme Court has ruled that an employer can simply notify at-will employees of the details of an arbitration program it is adopting, and the employees can be bound to that arbitration program by continuing their employment, even if they never sign anything.

So long as a defendant can show a valid agreement to arbitrate and a valid class action waiver, then a putative class action plaintiff will be unable to proceed on a class basis.

A class action waiver is a provision found in some contracts which prohibits a party from filing a class action legal proceeding against the other party, or both parties waiving the right to file class actions against each other.

Much like the opening statement in a trial, your arbitration statement should lay out what the “evidence” – the written material – will show regarding the proper credit on the project. The Arbitration Statement is not established fact, just your assessment of the material.

"A dispute having arisen between the parties concerning , the parties hereby agree that the dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the LCIA Rules. The number of arbitrators shall be one/three. The seat, or legal place, of arbitration shall be City and/or Country.

Some potential consequences may include: Breach of Contract: If arbitration is a contractual requirement and one party refuses to participate, they may be in breach of the contract. The non-complying party may be held liable for damages resulting from the breach.
