SUMMARY:What Domestic ADR Practitioners Can Learn from International Commercial Arbitration
DESCRIPTION:There are a number of emerging trends in international commercial arbitration that can revolutionize the way in which domestic ADR is conducted in the States. This program discusses two of those trends: transparency and third-party funding\, and how they are often intertwined. While increasingly used and discussed in the international arbitral setting\, historically there has not been the same dedication to these topics in the domestic ADR setting. This program seeks to bridge that gap.\nPresenters:\nCharles H.

SUMMARY:Ethical Conundrums Faced by Parties and Arbitrators in International Arbitration
DESCRIPTION:International arbitration is rife with tricky ethical issues as the standards governing lawyers in other countries often differ from those governing US lawyers. For example\, can a party interview a prospective party-appointed arbitrator and\, if so\, what questions are off limits\, such as hypotheticals that include key facts from the arbitration? What obligations does an arbitrator have when becoming aware that a co-arbitrator has failed to disclose important information such as financial connections with one of the parties? How far and for how long can an arbitrator lean toward the party who appointed them: during the hearing\, and then during deliberations? A legitimate role of a party-appointed arbitrator is to ensure that the tribunal understands the positions taken by the party who appointed them. But some arbitrators go further by asking pointed questions of only one party or of “advocating” for the position of the appointing party during deliberations. Opposing counsel in an arbitration may also be subject to conflicting ethical obligations regarding important aspects of the proceeding. When faced with a request to produce documents in the arbitration\, a US-barred lawyer is obligated to produce inculpatory documents that may harm the lawyer’s client’s position\, yet a civil law practitioner is prohibited from doing so. The privilege rules between the common law and civil law systems can also vary widely. For example\, privilege protections can extend to the internal communications of in-house counsel in common law jurisdictions but not normally in civil law jurisdictions. Similarly\, an English barrister is not allowed to review testimony with witnesses before they take the stand\, yet a US lawyer is free to “horse shed” that same witness. How are these disparities in the professional responsibilities of opposing counsel to be resolved without giving one side an advantage and hence “an inequality of arms”? What disclosure or other obligations arise when an arbitrator is a partner of a global law firm that receives third party funding\, or is the actual recipient of funding in an arbitration?
