NO DATE FOR ORAL ARGUMENT HAS BEEN SET

United States Court of Appeals, District of Columbia Circuit.

On appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, No. 14-1996 (BAH)

From the Summary of the Argument

Staying enforcement of an arbitral award pending a decision by a court in the place of arbitration is unusual; staying enforcement of an arbitral award for more than six years is almost unheard-of.⁶ The continued stay of proceedings in this case ignores the fact that arbitral awards are presumptively enforceable; non-enforcement is the exception rather than the rule.
