It outlines the interim measures available from Austrian courts to aid arbitration, as well as those that arbitral tribunals may grant under Austrian law. Austrian arbitration rules are contained in Chapter Four of the Austrian Code of Civil Procedure (ACCP). In contrast to the UNCITRAL Model Law, Austrian legislation does not draw a distinction between domestic and foreign arbitrations. The provisions of Chapter Four (sections 577 to 618) govern arbitrations seated in Austria, while certain provisions apply irrespective of the place of arbitration (ACCP, s 577(2))...

Sections 585 and 593 ACCP regulate interim relief in arbitration: the former addresses interim measures issued by state courts, and the latter governs measures ordered by arbitral tribunals. Note: Austrian judgments cited in this Practice Note are not reported by LexisNexis®...

Tomlin orders in England and Wales: CPR guidance on drafting, confidentiality, approval, variation, enforcement, limitation, CCA issues, court-specific requirements, sample wording and precedents

This Practice Note This Practice Note reviews mechanisms used in settling litigation. A Tomlin order consists of a consent order paired with a schedule. It operates to stay proceedings on terms that have been agreed. The provisions contained in the schedule may remain confidential. This Practice Note describes the scope of confidentiality attaching to the schedule and sets out how it differs from a standard consent order. Sample wording for a Tomlin order is included, alongside links to precedents, as well as guidance on court approval. It also addresses varying, setting aside and enforcing a Tomlin order, including the considerations the court will take into account when handling applications for each. Further guidance is provided on interpreting and applying the relevant provisions of the CPR; however, some courts and divisions impose very specific requirements for both drafting and approval, and for approaching the schedule and confidentiality issues. Accordingly, you must consider the particular rules and court guide provisions in the forum where your claim is proceeding when drawing up the Tomlin order...
