Section 648 Disposition versions

2016-12-01

648. An arbitration award may only be challenged by way of an application for its annulment. Such an application is subject to the same rules as those governing an application for the homologation of an arbitration award, with the necessary modifications.

Whether it constitutes an originating application or is presented to contest an application for homologation, the application for annulment must be presented within three months after receipt of the arbitration award or of the decision on the request for a correction, a supplemental award or an interpretation. This is a strict time limit.

The court, on request, may stay the application for annulment for the time it considers necessary to allow the arbitrator to take such action as will eliminate the grounds for annulment, even if the time prescribed for correcting, supplementing or interpreting the award has expired.
