I. INTRODUCTION<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The concept of arbitration at the first of its emergence was quite simple; two disputants voluntarily brought their dispute to a neutral person to settle it privately.[1]<\/a> \u00a0In the medieval era, the dispute that was brought to arbitration generally related to commercial matter of the feudal lords who want to exercise their independent jurisdiction and use a settlement procedure which is expeditious, prompt and handled by people who were themselves merchants and acutely aware of mercantile problems and customs.[2]<\/a> However, during the borderless commercial transaction, international arbitration become more complex especially when it comes to rendering an enforceable award. It will become worst if an arbitrator is susceptible to civil liability as it may disturb the continuity of arbitration as an \u00a0alternative favourable forum to settle a dispute.[3]<\/a> \u00a0To this issue, the relation between the arbitrator with the disputants become the center of discussion as both of them has same objective, which is to render and obtain enforceable award, but has two different interests. Arbitrator needs immunity while the disputant wants possibility to obtain liability from the arbitrator. This article tries to answer a question whether the arbitrator should be liable for making an award that is subsequently annulled or held unenforceable through two parts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The first part examines the nature of the arbitrators under diametrical roles that is often embedded to her, which are \u2018quasi-judicial officer\u2019 and \u2018professional service provider\u2019. The examination will end up with three approaches: 1) absolute immunity, 2) absolute liability and 3) qualified immunity approach.However this essay will stand with \u201cqualified immunity<\/strong>\u201d approach. The second part will explore the existence of arbitrator duty to render enforceable award by considering the relationship between the arbitrator and the disputants under contract theory, arbitration law as well as institutional rules that encourage the arbitrator to give her best effort to render enforceable award. Finally, this essay concludes that arbitrator should not be liable for an award the \u00a0is subsequently annulled and held enforceable unless she has been approved committing misconduct.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

II. Toward Immunity and Liability: A Finding to Qualified Immunity for Arbitrator<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Judge has been granted with judicial immunity when exercising their \u2018judicial act\u2019 to ensure they are free in though and independent in judgment.[4]<\/a> They \u00a0are even immune when they are alleged with malicious or corrupt actions as long as such acts fall within the ambit or in excess of their jurisdiction and their judicial act.[5]<\/a> During the time, this judicial immunity \u00a0is also extended to arbitrator with the idea that arbitrator is sharing comparable function with the judge in the court. According to Stump v Starkman,<\/em> this similar function can be tested into two steps which are (1) \u201cwhether the act is normally conducted\u00a0 by judge\u201d and (2) whether the parties dealt with judge in his judicial capacity.[6]<\/a> Refer to this test, it can be said the arbitrator is comparable with the \u00a0judge because 1) she is conducting independent judgement upon facts which finally rendering a decision upon facts and law[7]<\/a> and 2) \u00a0the disputants ask the arbitrator to settle their dispute as their capacity as an arbitrator, not as an \u00a0individual. This similar function then make her as \u201cquasi-judicial officer\u201d that may be granted with judicial immunity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Mettler argues immunity is important to foster arbitration as well as strengthen arbitration forum.[8]<\/a> If the arbitrator is no longer struggle \u2018between litigant and saddled within the burden of defending a lawsuit,[9]<\/a> people will be more encouraged to be an arbitrator.[10]<\/a> Immunity also can ensure the finality of arbitral award by restricting the vexatious litigant to re-litigate the case by attacking the arbitrator.[11]<\/a> Taking into account those arguments, arguably the finality of an award\u00a0 as well as the preservation or arbitration is the main focus of\u00a0 absolute immunity \u00a0which is a good feature for a country which wants to reduce an overcrowded lawsuit in their legal system.[12]<\/a> This also will be good for a country which wants to attract more investors or commercial actors to have business to their country.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

However, the generalization of judge and arbirator is not along the way because there are many factors that can make an arbitrator different with the judge. The arbitrator is appointed by the disputants, therefore her power to settle a dispute comes from \u00a0a contract, [13]<\/a> she is not employed and paid by state; rather she obtains remuneration from the disputant.[14]<\/a> Her decision also has a low societal impact as most of her cases is related to private commercial sectors.[15]<\/a> Therefore, the arbitrator should not be granted with immunity like the judges as it will encourage carelessness of the arbitrator by removing the incentive to be cautious.[16]<\/a> Furthermore, absolute immunity also overrides the most simple fact that there is a contract between the disputants and arbitrators which must be upheld by the court.[17]<\/a> This argument is true if we examine from contract theory which see the exchange of\u00a0 performance between\u00a0 arbitrator and disputants, whereas\u00a0 the disputants pay the arbitrators for getting eventual award from the arbitrator, as the indication of the existence of contract between them.[18]<\/a> The consequences of this contractual relationship is the arbitrator contract becomes regulation for the parties (pacta sun servada).[19]<\/strong><\/a><\/em> The procedures, appointment of arbitrators and even the specified format or scope of the award must refer to the agreed term there.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Foelix J argues that the nature of arbitrator contract is \u201cagency contract\u201d which can be seen from the \u2018appointment\u2019 of the arbitrator by the parties as an action that gives the arbitrator \u2018mandate\u2019\u00a0 from the disputants.[20]<\/a> This mechanism is similar with an agent who holds trust for and subject to the control of another (the principal) in agency theory.[21]<\/a> The consequences of this relationship is the arbitrator owes duty of performance to the principal which includes obedience, care and skills, non delegation, no secret of profit, respect of principal’s title, duty to account and fidelity.[22]<\/a> However, the agency theory fails to identify the fact that arbitrator does not act on behalf of the principal, rather she uses her own name and her primary duty is to adjudicate the dispute fairly, not to seek the best interest of the party that was appointing her.[23]<\/a> In another view, because of\u00a0 the \u201cfunctional similarity\u201d of the arbitrator with judge, the arbitrator contract cannot be perceived as merely a \u201cservice contract,\u201d\u00a0 because when conducting arbitration process in the seat of arbitration she must obtain a \u2018delegation\u2019 from the state where the arbitration process is taking place.[24]<\/a> The alternative approach to describe the contract might be an \u201csui generis\u201d contract which can accommodate the duty of arbitrator given by state, duty as professional and duty as qusi-judicial officer.[25]<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

What can be concluded from the variation of arbitrators\u2019 contract is the arbitrator \u00a0owes a duties to the disputants and in the context of arbitration the aggrieved party should be given an opportunity to uphold their rights because when the disputant concludes a contract \u00a0with the arbitrator they expect the arbitator to conduct the arbitral procedures with \u2018due care\u2019, \u2018good faith\u2019 and absence from \u2018fraud\u2019, \u2018misconduct; or negligence of their personal undertaking. [26]<\/a> The arbitrator is also expected \u00a0to carry out their professional standard and proper skill appropriately.[27]<\/a> The proponents of liability theory argue that ‘full liablity’ theory is more effective to create good environtment for arbitration forum because it makes the arbitrator pay attention to their professional duty and consistenly make a correction \u00a0to the arbitration regime. Consequently, the disputant and the market generally will get a good arbitration services. [28]<\/a> However, the full liability theory arguably can threat the integrity of arbitration process because the disgruntled party may impend the arbitrator to influence decision\u2014making process [29]<\/a> and creates the abundance litigation to the court. On the other hand,\u00a0 the absence of liablity will make a corrupt and greedy arbitration forum, as Lord Acton said, \u201cpower tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely\u2019. Taking into account the interrelation of arbitrator role as \u201cquasi-judicial\u201d officer and \u201cprofessional\u201d, arguably the most important thing is to acknowledge the facts that the arbitrator\u2019s role is quite complex while there is also an urgency to preserve the integrity of the arbitration forum and the need to hold professional accountability toward the disputants who already paid the arbitrator as professional.[30]<\/a> Arguably, these objectives can be achieved with \u201cqualified immunity\u201d theory[31]<\/a> The idea of qualified immunity is to grant \u00a0wide immunity to the arbitrator as long \u00a0she is acting her \u201cjudicial task\u201d within his jurisdiction and imposing liability if she fails to conduct his\/her duty with or she is approved conducting misconduct.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Further, as under ‘qualified immunity’ theory the liability is qualified\u00a0 to certain acts, the relevance matter of \u2018duty to render enforceable award\u2019 is how a country adopts their qualification for immunity. In the United Kingdom as well as another common law countries, they adopt an \u2018express qualification\u00a0 of immunity\u2019 while in civil law countries the \u2018implied qualification of immunity\u2019 is more favourable. Express qualification means the arbitration law of the country set a provision that can be a \u00a0ground of liability. As can be seen in UK Arbiration Act which set \u2018bad faith[32]<\/a>\u2019 of arbitrator as qualification to liability. This scheme in general gives broad immunity to the arbitrator. On the other hand, the \u2018implied qualification of immunity\u2019 does not set the qualification of immunity on the arbitration statutes, but use the provision of arbitrator contract as an immunity to the arbitrator. In Germany for example, the arbitration law sets the grounds that can make an arbitrator liable, but the arbitrator is immune from making errors award (like a judge in the court) and only liable for breaches of other duties imposed by contract.[33]<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Hebaizhi\u00a0 argues\u00a0 the ‘qualified immunity’ theory is not practical because it creates a confusion when trying to find the scope of ‘judicial act’ \u00a0conducted by arbitrators.[34]<\/a> His argument is based on the cases when arbitrator is alleged liable when \u00a0she fails to render award timely. At that that cases the tardiness to render a contract may be caused by the complexity of the case rather than the misconduct of the arbitrator. Hebaizhi\u2019s argument may be true in international level since \u00a0until now there is lack of uniformity of \u201cjudicial task\u201d and also the other qualification (bad faith, intentional misconduct, and so forth). Arguably, what can be proposed to arbitrator overcome this issue is, by ascertaining the potential scope of their liability in accordance with the seat of arbitration.[35]<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

III. Exploring the Duty to Render Enforceable Award: Is that exist?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Derain and Schwartz state that the enforceability of an award is the raison d\u2019etre<\/em> or the ultimate goal of an arbitral process.[36]<\/a> While Redfern and Hunter state that the \u201cenforceability\u201d is one of the primary reasons that drive the party to bring their dispute to arbitration instead of to national court.[37]<\/a> This reason is understanable because the New York Convention 1954 gives facility to enforce arbitral award in its Member country.[38]<\/a> The enforceability can be done because the national court gives their \u00a0assistance to execute the losing party assets in their territory. In contrast, there is no global treaty that can facilitate \u00a0the enforcement of ‘court judgment’ which can be accepted internationally as New York Convention 1954.[39]<\/a> The relevant question to the aforementioned assumptions is whether it automatically vests the arbitrator with duty to render enforceable award?.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

According to Boorg, saying that the arbitrator under a legal duty to render enforceable award is a conceptual leap. He bases his argument on Football Association of Serbia (FAS) v Serbian Football Player case. At that case, the FAS alleged the Court of Sport Arbitration (CAS) violating the principle \u00a0\u2018arbitrator should \u00a0render enforceable award<\/em>\u2019 because the CAS accepted jurisdiction to adjudicate dispute which under Serbian Law is not arbitrable. Switzerland Appeal of Court \u00a0decided that the CAS does not violate any principle about rendering an award because to decide jurisdiction to arbitrate is purely the jurisdiction of \u00a0Switzerland arbitrator. [40]<\/a> In ICC Case 4695 (interim award), \u00a0the ICC tribunal unequivocally said if the tribunal declines to exercise jurisdiction on the basis of possible difficulties of enforcement in the home jurisdiction, then there would no award at all.[41]<\/a> These cases show that to some extent the case laws give \u201cspace\u201d where an award \u00a0is permissible to be annulled or challenged and implicitly show that the arbitral tribunal duty to render an \u201cinternationally enforceable award\u201d is not the ultimate goal of arbitration tribunal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Furthermore, although the New York Convention 1958 has already limited the ground that can be used to challenge an award, the arbitrator still faces \u00a0different standard in treating each grounds even in one national court. In regard to public policy for\u00a0 example, the arbitrator must\u00a0 face \u00a0the discretionary principle given by New York Convention to national court through Article V (2) (a) \u00a0New York Convention that states \u201c…the recognition and enforcement…may<\/em><\/strong>also be refused..” which means the national court is not under obligation to enforce arbitral award. As an illustration, in Omnium de Traitement et de Valorisation (OTV) SA v Hilmarton Ltd<\/em>, the English court held that an arbitral award should be enforced\u00a0 \u2018even if English law would have arrived at a different result on the ground that the underlying contract breached public policy\u2026<\/em>\u2019.[42]<\/a>. However in Soleimany v Soleimany<\/em>, the Court of Appeal held that \u2018an English court would not enforce an award on the ground of public policy which sought to enforce a contract which was illegal under English law as well as illegality to be of no relevance since under the law governing the arbitration<\/em>.\u2019[43]<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Julian LQ argues that arbitrator is not under obligation to ensure the enforceability of an award unless the disputants have clearly stated the country where they want to seek enforcement of the award.[44]<\/a> However, the arbitrator must take into consideration all factors that can threaten the validity of the award.[45]<\/a> Taking into account the aforementioned theories, it can be said that the \u00a0enforceability of an award is more likely a \u201cprocess\u201d rather than \u201cdefinite\u201d product.[46]<\/a> \u00a0However, it does not mean that the arbitrator is justified to make an unenforceable award as many arbitration institutional rules tries to fill this lacuna by ruling that the arbitrator should \u201cmake every effort to make enforceable award\u201d[47]<\/a> or \u201creasonable effort\u201d[48]<\/a> when settling a dispute. Thefore, it can be concluded that the ultimate goal of arbitration is to render an award that can be \u2018potentially\u2019 enforceable after the arbitrator do her best effort under her \u2018judicial duty\u2019, \u00a0\u2018duty given by their contract\u2019 and limited to the matters that expressly provided[49]<\/a> to the arbitrator. To reach this goal, what can be explored is how the arbitrator can follow all the procedures in the seat of arbitration to ensure the arbitral award is not annulled, because the annulment of an award has greater damage than an award that is unenforceable. An annulled\u00a0 award is susceptible to be declined by some countries under the ground of Article V (2) (e) New York Convention. [50]<\/a>\u00a0 Although Article V gives discretion to the court whether to enforce an award that is annulled or not, but for the sake maintaining international comity and the principle of \u2018ex nihilo nil fit\u2019 <\/em>national court generally decline the enforcement of an award that has been annulled in the seat of arbitration [51]<\/a> as for example can be seen in\u00a0 Baker Marine (Nig) Ltd v Chevron (Nig) Ltd<\/em>.[52]<\/a> \u00a0In contrast, an award\u00a0 that is not annulled in the seat of arbitration still can be enforced in another country because of different interpretation to the New York Convention or different standard of laws. Further, New York Convention explicitly gives opportunity to the party to do a \u2018forum shopping\u2019\u00a0 to enforce an award to the litigant through VII (1) of the New York Convention. By paying attention to the seat of arbitration, the arbitrator will mitigate the risk of the award become unenforceable in another country. For the disputant, arguably it is better to have an award that is enforceable in several jurisdiction rather than an award that is unenforceable at all.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

IV. Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Arbitrator should not liable for the award that is subsequently annulled or held unenforceable unless she is proven committing misconduct or\u00a0 fail to follow the procedures, arbitration law and and arbitration rules at the seat of arbitration. This conclusion is obtained from \u2018qualified immunity\u2019 theory which \u00a0in the view that the arbitrator should be granted with immunity to ensure her freedom when exercising \u2018judicial duty\u2019 that is comparable to the judge in the court. Immunity is also needed to secure the finality of an award made by arbitrator. However that immunity must be limited because in fact, the arbitrator is not judge. Arbitrator is also a professional who owes duties to \u00a0her client (disputants) whether the duty that is implied in the contract or the duty that arises from their their ethic as professional. Furthermore, duty to render enforceable award is not a \u2018definit\u2019 product, but that is the matter on how the arbitrator must give her best effort when conducting arbitration process. By using this theory, what should be done with the arbitrator is to make an award that is \u2018potentially\u2019 enforceable by paying attention and adhere with the arbitration law of the seat of arbitration, New York Convention and the arbitrator contract with the arbitrator. Therefore, the liability of arbitrator to the disputant must be assessed critically, at the minimum, based on the provision of arbitration law and arbitral institution rules\u00a0 in the seat of arbitration to find out the \u201cqualification of liability\u201d that can make the arbitrator liable.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
