Checklist
- Article 25.7 says the tribunal’s powers include, on the application of any party, making an award that grants early dismissal or termination of any claim, defence or counterclaim.
- The article does not state a threshold. Do not add a test such as manifest lack of merit unless it is found in a source that has been opened.
- This is not a jurisdiction objection, an application for interim measures, or an application when a person defaults.
- Do not assume another institution’s rules contain the same power.
