The Point

With Singapore Convention Week 2025 kicking off at the end of this month, we are delighted to share this new edition of the Addleshaw Goddard International Arbitration Newsletter in which we explore key developments in international arbitration including Singapore's dismissal of the Russian Federation's immunity claim in arbitration award enforcement proceedings, Spain's resistance to renewable energy awards under EU law, and France's focus on efficient tribunal constitution. From Poland, we examine the impact of sanctions on arbitration, while Germany analyses the recent decision by the Federal Court of Justice upholds arbitration clauses despite invalid procedural arrangements. In the Middle East, we discuss the growing use of dispute adjudication boards, and in London, we delve into the anticipated Arbitration Act 2025 and the role of AI in arbitration.

Meta's $18 Billion Settlement: Reckoning Or Managed Exit?

Game Developer And Publisher Battle Over Step In Rights

One-Punch Manslaughter – When A Single Blow Kills (Video)

A split-second decision can change lives forever. In one-punch manslaughter cases, a single impulsive blow, perhaps thrown in anger, fear or misguided bravado, leads to a tragic death. These ‘death by a single punch’ incidents are more common in the UK than many realise. Dozens of families every year are left devastated, with one family grieving an unimaginable loss, and another family shocked and fearful as their loved one faces a homicide investigation for an outcome no one intended. It’s a tragic reality, one moment of anger, one fatal assault involving a single blow, and two lives (and families) ruined.

LNG Charterparty Hire Formula: Meaning Of JKM–TTF Pricing Spread

The Commercial Court ruled on a USD 29 million dispute over an LNG carrier charterparty's index-linked pricing formula, determining whether the "JKM-TTF spread" operated bidirectionally or only when JKM exceeded TTF. The decision examines how unprecedented market conditions—where European gas prices surged above Asian prices due to the Ukraine war—tested the contractual formula's application and whether rectification could remedy an alleged drafting oversight.
