ICDR Tutorial 5 (26.11.20)

- Separability-doctrine: Some argue that the validity of the arbitration agreement should
depend on the validity of the main contract. This would lead to following situation: If the
arbitral agreement at issue were void just because there is no valid main agreement, the
tribunal would have no competence to hear the case. So, every time a party succeeds in
challenging the main contract the tribunal would act ultra petitia or the award could be set
aside

- Attention when it comes to challenges of the choice of arbitrator: Often lex arbitri
provides a non-mandatory norm which determines before which court and under which
conditions the choice of arbitrator may be challenged. Parties may deviate from such
norms by choosing for example a set of rules (e.g. ICC Rules). Such rules may provide
the parties the right to challenge the choice of arbitrator before the institution (e.g.
International Chamber of Commerce). But: always check, whether lex arbitri is
dispositive in that regard!
