In this episode, Luke Zadkovich and Calum Cheyne are back for a 1 on 1 episode after having a series of exciting guests on the podcast. They discuss London Arbitration 30/22, where the validity of a notice of readiness (NOR) submission via email is put into question.
This is a short but sweet one. The contract provided for certain forms of notice to be given. On its face, a notice outside that list was issued. There is pre-existing legal authority suggesting such notice is defective.
But this arbitral panel thought otherwise. Quite an interesting one. Probably a sensible, practical decision and reflects modern practice. Yet runs up against previous legal authority.
Definitely some good take aways from this case. We share our drafting tips.
