Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co. Ltd v Songa Offshore Equinox Ltd and Anor [2018]

Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co. Ltd v Songa Offshore Equinox Ltd and Anor [2018] EWHC 538 —16 March 2018 (Bryan J)

“The 28 day period for challenging an Arbitration Award was held to run from the date of the Award and not from the date of a Memorandum (requested 12 days, and issued 27 days after the Award) under s57(3)(a) of the Arbitration Act, correcting what the Court termed "classic clerical and typographical errors". The corrections were unconnected with and not material to the grounds of appeal and the Court held that the appeal was out of time and declined to exercise its discretion to grant a retrospective extension.”
