Asean Dispute Settlement And The Temple Of Preah Vihear, David Y.K. Kwok Jul 2023

Asean Dispute Settlement And The Temple Of Preah Vihear, David Y.K. Kwok

Journal of Dispute Resolution

The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (“ASEAN”) was established in 1967. The founding members of ASEAN are Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. Five other countries have since joined ASEAN, including Brunei, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia and Myanmar. Today, ASEAN represents a strong economic organization which has Gross Domestic Product ranking top ten in the world. As to why the founding members decided to establish such an organization, Piris and Woon take the view that it was for the purpose of combating communism during the 1960s. In 2007, a milestone event for ASEAN was the adoption of the ASEAN Charter (“the …


In Praise Of Reconciliation: The In-Court Settlement As A Global Outreach For Appropriate Dispute Resolution, Cesare Cavallini, Stefania Cirillo Jul 2023

In Praise Of Reconciliation: The In-Court Settlement As A Global Outreach For Appropriate Dispute Resolution, Cesare Cavallini, Stefania Cirillo

Journal of Dispute Resolution

A sense of crisis in the administration of civil justice is widespread. Whether the typical difficulties faced by many countries unfold in excessive costs and delays, they have stark implications for the effectiveness of the procedural systems and access to justice. Several new institutions evolved to deal with this state of crisis. Amongst them, the judicially-led settlement, which has the peculiarity of being an alternative tool, despite being performed in the courtroom, made inroads worldwide. However, the pro-adjudication rhetoric raised and continue to raise severe qualms of parties’ coercion and judicial partiality resulting from the judge’s dual role as conciliator …


How Can International Commercial Courts Become An Attractive Option For The Resolution Of International Commercial Disputes?, Shahar Avraham-Giller, Rabeea Assy Jul 2023

How Can International Commercial Courts Become An Attractive Option For The Resolution Of International Commercial Disputes?, Shahar Avraham-Giller, Rabeea Assy

Journal of Dispute Resolution

Arbitration has dominated the landscape of the resolution of international commercial disputes (that is, private disputes involving transnational connections). Nevertheless, the last fifteen years have witnessed a proliferation in the establishment of new commercial courts in several countries, with the aim of attracting international commercial disputes. This article makes the novel argument that such attempts are unlikely to render adjudication an attractive alternative to arbitration. For the new international commercial courts to fully realize their potential and produce a sustainable market of adjudication, some mechanism is needed to secure the enforceability of jurisdiction clauses and the judgments delivered by courts …

Where’S The First Tee And What’S The Course Record?: The Pros And Cons Of Using Adr In The Pga Tour-Liv Golf Antitrust Suit, Sean Mcdowell

Journal of Dispute Resolution

LIV Golf has taken the professional golfing world by storm. Started by golfing legend Greg Norman and funded by the Saudi Arabia Public Fund, LIV golf has brought a new league with a new format to golf, but it has also drawn its fair share of criticism due to its sources of funding. In response to the rise of LIV Golf, the PGA TOUR, professional golf’s principal league, announced it would suspend any player that signed a contract to play for LIV Golf. Recently, eleven LIV Golf players and LIV Golf itself have filed an antitrust suit against the PGA …


Missouri’S Ultimate Dead Hand Control: The Development And Relationship Between Donative Arbitration Provisions And No-Contest Clauses In Wills & Trusts, Hunter Hummell Jul 2023

Missouri’S Ultimate Dead Hand Control: The Development And Relationship Between Donative Arbitration Provisions And No-Contest Clauses In Wills & Trusts, Hunter Hummell

Journal of Dispute Resolution

In Epigrams of a Cynic, Ambrose Bierce wrote “death is not the end; there remains the litigation over the estate.” As true as that statement was in 1912, it does not take a cynic to see the role that probate and litigation play in our world today. In 2022, Americans will spend over two billion dollars on probate. The probate system has always been one the most important foundations of the U.S modern legal system. In Missouri alone, there were over 15,000 cases filed in the probate court in 2021. It seems that death and conflict are inseparable. The idea …


New Update Available: How The Doordash And Tiktok Cases Will Change The Way Arbitration Is Utilized In Class Actions, Allison Garrett Jul 2023

New Update Available: How The Doordash And Tiktok Cases Will Change The Way Arbitration Is Utilized In Class Actions, Allison Garrett

Journal of Dispute Resolution

In the commercialized and technology-driven world we live in today, it is astonishingly easy to find an area where an arbitration clause has influenced our lives. If you have purchased a smart phone, applied for a credit card, downloaded an app, or ordered takeout, you have likely signed an arbitration clause. Arbitration claims can be a powerful tool for suppressing collective action and contributed to the steady decrease of class action filings for decades, particularly against large corporations. With the strengthening of arbitration clauses in the past several decades and the court’s tricky relationship with their enforcement, arbitration claims have …


Fault Lines & Fractured Foundations: A Paradigm Shift For Equal Pay For Professional Women Athletes, Emily Tompkins Jul 2023

Fault Lines & Fractured Foundations: A Paradigm Shift For Equal Pay For Professional Women Athletes, Emily Tompkins

Journal of Dispute Resolution

In the face of adversity, professional female athletes have championed the fight for equal pay and brought the issue to the national stage. Testifying in front of the Congressional House Oversight Committee, Megan Rapinoe, a professional soccer player for the United States Women’s National Team, articulates that “one cannot simply outperform inequality or be excellent enough to escape discrimination of any kind.” Megan Rapinoe’s message has touched the hearts of not only Americans but also people all over the world, and her leadership has brought visibility to the realities of gender-based discrimination of female athletes in the United States.


Player Discipline In The Nfl: Arbitration Or Arbitrary?, Adam Walker Jul 2023

Player Discipline In The Nfl: Arbitration Or Arbitrary?, Adam Walker

Journal of Dispute Resolution

Since the Houston Texans drafted him in 2017, Deshaun Watson has statistically been one of the best quarterbacks in the National Football League (“NFL”). Watson led the Texans to the playoffs in both the 2018 and 2019 seasons before internal organizational issues led to Watson requesting a trade after the 2020 season. By the end of March 2021, twenty-one women had filed civil lawsuits alleging Watson of sexual assault and sexual misconduct. Watson did not immediately face any discipline from the NFL, but the Texans made Watson inactive for every week of the 2021 season in light of the accusations …

Appraisal Of The Success Of The Instruments Of International Commercial Arbitration Vis-À-Vis International Commercial Litigations And Mediation In The Harmonization Of The Rules Of Transnational Commercial Dispute Resolution, Samuel Maireg Biresaw Jul 2022

Appraisal Of The Success Of The Instruments Of International Commercial Arbitration Vis-À-Vis International Commercial Litigations And Mediation In The Harmonization Of The Rules Of Transnational Commercial Dispute Resolution, Samuel Maireg Biresaw

Journal of Dispute Resolution

This article compares the major instruments of International Commercial Arbitration (hereinafter ‘ICA’) with the instruments of International Commercial Litigation and Mediation. By so doing, the article comparatively assesses the success of ICA, litigation, and mediation as alternative mechanisms of transnational commercial dispute resolution. Accordingly, the article argues that, while the ICA is not the only means of transnational commercial dispute resolution, it will continue to be the most successful means of dispute resolution, playing the dominant role in harmonizing the rules of transnational commercial dispute resolution. However, the article also argues that, over time, transnational commercial litigation and mediation are …

Gig Workers: Walking A Tightrope Without A Safety Net, Joshua M. Javits, Matthew L. Luby

Journal of Dispute Resolution
