The arbitral tribunal's application of the rules of evidence
In arbitration proceedings, evidence is the basis of the award, and the arbitral tribunal must strictly apply the rules of evidence to ensure the fairness and legitimacy of the award. The arbitral tribunal's application of the rules of evidence primarily involves the collection, submission, and review of evidence.
Collection of evidence
When a party requests evidence, the arbitral tribunal will decide whether to accept it in accordance with the procedural rules and request the other party to provide explanations or rebuttals. The arbitral tribunal may issue a decision requiring the submission of specific evidence or dispatch a specialist to collect evidence.
Submission of evidence
The evidence submitted by both parties in the arbitration proceedings must be authentic, legal, and convincing. The arbitral tribunal will examine whether the evidence submitted complies with legal requirements and is relevant to the facts in dispute, and will assess the authenticity and credibility of the evidence.
Review of evidence
The arbitral tribunal will review and debate the evidence presented, listening to the parties' comments and explanations. It may request further evidence or explanations from the parties, or conduct an on-site inspection. Ultimately, the tribunal will render a ruling based on the legal provisions and the relevance, authenticity, and credibility of the evidence.
Legal remedies
If a party is dissatisfied with the arbitral tribunal's decision, it may seek legal remedies to review or set aside the decision. These remedies include appeals, retrials, or enforcement proceedings for procedural and erroneous decisions.
appeal
The parties may appeal the arbitral tribunal's decision to a court with jurisdiction over the case, requesting the court to review the legality and fairness of the decision. The court will review the appeal and make a decision based on the law and the facts.
retrial
Under certain circumstances, a party may request a retrial of an arbitral award. This typically occurs when new evidence is discovered or a procedural error is identified in the award. The arbitral tribunal will then re-examine the case and issue a new award.
Application for execution
If one party fails to comply with an arbitration award, the other party may apply to a court with jurisdiction for enforcement. The court will enforce the arbitration award based on the parties' application and relevant materials, and will protect the legitimate rights and interests of the parties.
