Mining Sector ICDR Arbitration Counsel Engagement
Mr. Goldstein in collaboration with Canadian co-counsel recently secured enforcement in British Columbia of a US $10 million award made in New York in favor of Mr. Goldstein’s US client against a Thailand rare earth metals merchant and his Cayman Islands-based holding company. Canadian commentators have observed that the B.C. judgment confirming the award marks a significant refinement of Canadian law concerning arbitral jurisdiction over non-signatories to the arbitration agreement.
