Separate award on Advance on Costs

One of the new features of the 2007 SCC Rules is that the Arbitral Tribunal may, at the request of a party, make a separate award for reimbursement of half of the Advance on Costs from a party who has failed to pay its share of the Advance on Costs. The first award made with reference to the new rule was given on 13 February 15, 2008 in an international case concerning a delivery agreement.

One of the parties had paid the total amount of the Advance on Costs and requested that the Arbitral Tribunal issue a separate award ordering the other party to reimburse it for half of the paid amount. The non-paying party argued that no award should be made since the time left until the final award shall be rendered was short (i.e. three months). The tribunal stated that there must be cases where a separate award on the Advance on Cost should not be made and mentioned the situation where the party, which has failed to pay, has made a jurisdictional objection that is well founded, or if the final award is imminent. The tribunal did not find any such reasons in the present case and thus ordered the non-paying party to make the reimbursement.

作为07年斯德哥尔摩国际仲裁院仲裁规则一项新的特征,仲裁庭可以在一方当事人的请求下,对未缴付己方应承担仲裁预付款份额的另一方当事人,作出要求其偿还的单独的仲裁裁决。08年2月15日,首份引用该仲裁规则条文的仲裁裁决在一起国际货运合同纠纷案件中作出。
案件的一方当事人预缴了所有的仲裁预付款项,并向仲裁庭请求作出独立的仲裁裁决,要求对方当事人偿还其应承担的一半份额。未缴付一方当事人提出抗辩,称该项仲裁裁决因离最终裁决作出的时间短暂(如三个月而不应再单独作出。仲裁庭认为,在一方当事人无法偿付、提出有效的管辖异议或最终裁决即将作出的情况下,仲裁庭将不再对仲裁预付款作出单独的仲裁裁决。但该案中,仲裁庭并未发现上述原因,因此要求未付款一方偿还仲裁预付款。
