Reported in: 1999(6)ALD173

ORDER1. This order will dispose of the preliminary objection of the respondent regarding the maintainability of theapplication.2. In IA No. 16 of 1997, Justice P. A. Choudari (former Judge of this Court) had been appointed Arbitrator under Section 11 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 (for short, 'the new Arbitration Act'). The Arbitrator has passed the award on 15-1-1999. The petitioner has filed the application under Section 34 of the new Arbitration Act for setting aside the Award passed by the Arbitrator on 15-1-19993. The question that falls for determination is whether the application under Section 34 of the new Arbitration Act for setting aside the Award lies in this High Court, because it is not a Court within the meaning of Section 34 ibid.4.
