Court : Kolkata

Reported in : AIR1959Cal8

..... the point is not without difficulty, but giving the matter the best consideration i can, i have come to the conclusion that, it is not possible to read section 3 of the arbitration (protocol and convention) act as not limited to eases where there is not only an arbitration agreement, but, in pursuance to that agreement, a reference to an arbitration has also been made. ..... but although its inability to prove its own readiness and willingness to go to arbitration may not be an impediment to the appellant in maintaining its prayer under section 3 of the arbitration (protocol and convention) act, it could obtain an order tinder that section only if the court was satisfied that the agreement had not become inoperative or the arbitration could proceed. ..... the next step in the learned judge's reasoning is that before a court stayed any proceeding under section 3 of the arbitration (protocol and convention) act, it had to be satisfied under the express terms of the section that there was a submission to arbitration in pursuance of an agreement to which the protocol applied and it, therefore, followed that if the agreement was such that the parties had elected thereunder to go to arbitration under the national statutes, .....
