Citation: 115 Con LR 102 TCC and [2007] EWHC 1626 (TCC)
Nature of case: The claimant contractor succeeded in its argument that it had made a binding agreement with the defendant client which gave the adjudicator ad hoc jurisdiction to decide both the claimant’s claims and the defendant’s cross-claims without considering procedural defences. The defendant was held to have waived its jurisdiction objections.
