SIAC Arbitration Rules (2025)
30.1 Except as otherwise provided in these Rules, in the event of the death, incapacity, resignation, withdrawal, or removal of an arbitrator by the SIAC Court during the course of the arbitration, a substitute arbitrator shall be appointed in accordance with the procedure applicable to the nomination and appointment of the arbitrator being replaced. This procedure shall apply even if, during the process of appointing the arbitrator, a party failed to exercise its right to nominate an arbitrator. The time limits applicable to the nomination and appointment of the substitute arbitrator shall commence from the date of receipt by the parties of the notification of the arbitrator’s death, incapacity, resignation, withdrawal, or removal.
30.2 Where the Tribunal comprises three or more arbitrators, the SIAC Court may determine, as appropriate and after considering the views of the parties and the remaining arbitrators, that the remaining arbitrators shall proceed with the arbitration without appointing a substitute arbitrator under Rule 30.1.
30.3 If any arbitrator is replaced under these Rules, the Tribunal shall decide, after considering the views of the parties, whether any hearings held previously shall be repeated. Unless the Tribunal decides otherwise after considering the views of the parties, any hearings held previously relating solely to a decision, ruling, order, or award shall not be repeated and the decision, ruling, order, or award shall remain in effect.
