Legal Strategies for Resolving International Commercial Disputes
Where a dispute goes is decided before the merits. A court faced with a contract containing an arbitration clause must refer the parties to arbitration under Article II(3) of the New York Convention, and a party seeking to compel arbitration seated abroad petitions under 9 U.S.C. § 206. Evidence and assets sit in different places than the forum. 28 U.S.C. § 1782 allows discovery in a US district court for use in a foreign proceeding even with no case pending here, though after ZF Automotive v. Luxshare (2022) it is unavailable for a private commercial arbitration. Enforcement is a separate stage. A Convention award is confirmed under 9 U.S.C. § 207 within three years, and refusal is limited to the Article V grounds. A foreign court judgment is instead recognized in New York under CPLR Article 53, which has its own grounds and no reciprocity requirement.
