by Dana C. MacGrath, Esq. / O'MELVENY & MYERS LLP

ICC Statistics from 2003 and 2002
The United States was the biggest per-party user of ICC Arbitration, with 199 parties to ICC cases last year. The U.S. was also a popular location for venue, with a total of 53 ICC cases held here in 2003.

The traditional view of lis pendens – two parallel court proceedings where priority is given to the first filed case – and it applicability to arbitration was turned on its head by the Swiss Supreme Court in 2001. What this means for arbitral proceedings, in light of Switzerland’s popularity as a venue, has yet to be determined.
At the Spring Meeting of the ABA’s Section of International Law and Practice panelists proposed reforms to the Federal Arbitration Act to support international arbitration.
The inaugural meeting of the USCIB Young Arbitrators Forum was held in March at the offices of Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP in New York. The nearly 100 participants heard members of the ICC Court and distinguished practitioners describe their experiences and provide strategies for those who wish to pursue careers in this field.
