最近英格蘭和威爾斯高等法院 (EWHC) 在 Grosskopf 訴 Grosskopf (2024 EWHC 291 Ch) 案中的判決說明了當前司法機構對信託糾紛仲裁的態度。該決定似乎是對這種做法的部分認可,至少在當事人已簽訂仲裁協議的情況下是如此,但並沒有解決對非當事人進行仲裁協議的約束,使他們無法提起單獨的法律訴訟的根本問題。
TRUSTS: EWHC case fails to resolve role of arbitration in trust disputes
The recent England and Wales High Court (EWHC) decision in Grosskopf v Grosskopf (2024 EWHC 291 Ch) illustrates current judicial attitudes to arbitration of trust disputes. The decision appears to be a partial endorsement of the practice, at least where parties had entered into an agreement to arbitrate, but does not resolve the underlying problem of binding non-parties to the arbitration agreement such that they cannot pursue separate legal proceedings.
