Interpretation Of Pathological Arbitration Agreements: Non-Existing And Inaccessible Elements, Morten Frank
Pepperdine Dispute Resolution Law Journal
In the following, I will initially present the terminological and analytical framework for handling pathological arbitration agreements (Part II). Against this background, I will analyze case law from USA (Part III), Singapore and Hong Kong (Part IV), and England (Part V) in order to establish under which circumstances Solution 1, Solution 2 and Solution 3 apply in respect of arbitration agreements containing non-existing and inaccessible elements.

Part VII provides a summary as well as concluding remarks on the drafting of arbitration agreements.

Using these visions of justice, the article explores the justice goals of ADR in Israel, assesses whether they have been achieved, and considers the future of …
