In an ongoing effort to reconcile how to conduct arbitration such that the arbitrator is available to proceed to the next case, a procedure was added to the arbitration guidelines for Kieler Woche. If the arbitration results in proceeding to a hearing, the arbitrator would inform the parties of the opportunity to point out inconsistent testimony during the hearing. This gives the parties advance notice of the issue such that they are more inclined to keep their story consistent, opens the door for the parties to initiate what might be an RRS 2 or 69 issue, and provides the foundation for calling the arbitrator as a witness.
That specific language is here.
Is there any other information on 1, 2, 3, 4 Mike
The 2017 IJM, Section L-3 .. the paragraph under the bullets specifically states that there should be no discussion of the rules ... only if and until the protest is withdrawn ... so I don't think there is any conflict there.
Other than that minor thing .. I think the doc is helpful.
