Singapore High Court examines its approach towards interlocutory orders in arbitral proceedings | Practical Law
The Singapore High Court refused to set aside an interim anti-suit injunction ordered by an arbitral tribunal. It rejected the application on the grounds that, in contrast to its ability to set aside awards, it did not have jurisdiction to set aside interlocutory orders. The court discussed, among other things, the scope of the Singapore courts’ powers to set aside arbitral orders and awards and the policy considerations behind the act of balancing judicial intervention with arbitral independence.
