F Ltd v M Ltd: TCC 11 Feb 2009

The claimant sought rmission of part of the final award.
Held: Coulson J said: ‘It is not, I think, for the arbitral tribunal to hunt through the contract and find other ways in which the claimant’s claim might be put, and then offer the claimant a further opportunity to make submissions on any provision thereby identified. In an adversarial system it is for the claimant to identify the ways in which it puts its case.’
