This article examines seven recent Supreme Court decisions from Norway's highest court, covering procedural matters ranging from enforcement law and judicial impartiality to evidence presentation and cost allocation. The cases address fundamental questions about when enforcement proceedings are truly concluded, what constitutes judicial bias in competition cases, and how courts should handle witness fees and settlement offers in cost assessments.

HR-2026-2080-U

Saken gjaldt krav om omgjøring av en fordelingskjennelse etter tvangssalg av en eiendom. Parallelt med kravet om tvangssalg av eiendommen verserte det en tvist mellom skyldneren og en annen kravshaver, som gjaldt låneavtaler i forbindelse med et utbyggingsprosjekt. Fordelingskjennelsen tildelte sistnevnte kravshaver en andel av kjøpesummen for eiendommen, til dekning av kravet fra utbyggingsprosjektet. Kort tid etter ble skyldneren frifunnet for dette kravet ved rettskraftig dom. Provenyet fra tvangssalget stod fortsatt på konto hos medhjelperen som gjennomførte tvangssalget, og var ikke utbetalt til kravshaveren. Skyldneren krevde omgjøring av fordelingskjennelsen med grunnlag i tvangsfullbyrdelsesloven § 6-4, men fikk ikke medhold i tingretten eller lagmannsretten.

Norwegian Ruling Limits The Scope Of Arbitration Clauses In Relation To Third Parties

The Norwegian Supreme Court's Appeals Committee has ruled that arbitration clauses cannot bind third parties without explicit contractual agreement, even when those parties have close commercial or group ties to the original contract. This decision clarifies the boundaries of arbitration agreements and emphasizes that contractual basis, rather than commercial proximity, determines who can be compelled to arbitrate disputes.

Norsk kendelse afgrænser voldgiftsklausulers rækkevidde over for tredjeparter

En norsk højesteretskendelse fra april 2026 fastslår, at en voldgiftsklausul i en skibsbygningskontrakt ikke kunne udvides til at omfatte et moderselskab, der havde stillet garanti for datterselskabets forpligtelser. Afgørelsen understreger, at voldgift kræver et klart aftaleretligt grundlag, og at tæt kommerciel eller koncernmæssig tilknytning ikke i sig selv kan erstatte en eksplicit aftale om voldgift.
