Dear All, I am pleased to share that my article titled 'Physical Hearing in Arbitration Proceedings: A Matter of Right?' has been published on the The Arbitration Digest . In this blog piece, I examine whether a party to an arbitration proceeding can demand a physical hearing as a matter of right. Furthermore I analyse various concerns of not recognising the right to a physical hearing such as that of due process, confidentiality and post-award enforceability. Please find a link to the same attached below and I hope this makes for interesting reading! https://lnkd.in/dbE7-Kmw

In the course of discussion in the panel at the Solidarity Arbitration and Mediation conference in Warsaw last week, I suggested a spontaneous idea of using ArtificiaI Intelligence to assist a tribunal with two opposing positions of quantum experts on damages in the same case. Originally, it was closer to a joke. Now I am thinking more carefully how this could be done in practical terms.

I am delighted to announce that my article on "A New Conceptual and Applicable Proposal on the Independence and Impartiality of the Arbitrator", has now been published in the latest issue of the Journal of International Arbitration. In this article I analyze the current state of affairs regarding the independence and impartiality of the arbitrator. In addition, I formulate some new conceptual proposals on the subject, pointing out that it is a hybrid concept, which -using Dworkin's distinction- functions more as a principle than as a rule. I also put forward a couple of applicable proposals on this topic. First, the use of a multi-step model that allows us to analyse a specific case. Second, when the principle of independence and impartiality collides with another principle, I advocate the use of balancing. You can consult the aforementioned article at the following address. https://lnkd.in/e_2TPUfd
