Arbitration Clause – Remit – Parties to a Case – Consultant not paid – Jurisdiction
The original dispute involved a claim by a consultant who had not been paid after carrying out work on a factory with another consultant who had been paid by the factory but had failed to share the amount. Court jurisdiction was challenged as the parties had agreed to arbitration. The case considered how a new party could be joined to a case and the way in which an arbitration clause should be interpreted.
