When Does Arbitration Clause Have Priority? - Usually
Stretford v Football Association and another [2007] EWCA Civ 238
CA
21 March 2007
Weekly Law Notes Summary
An arbitration agreement contained in the rules of a national football association did not infringe the right to a fair trial guaranteed by art 6 of the Human Rights Convention and therefore an action brought by one party, challenging the validity of disciplinary proceedings and the arbitration agreement, was properly stayed on the ground that the dispute had been submitted to arbitration.
