Usually that is the case FM - but it depends on whether the arbitration is binding, and whether either side can opt out of it along the way.
If the parties cannot hammer out a compromise, mediated by the arbitrator, then it goes to court. If something can be mediated, then generally a court will abide by the arbitrator's rulings and judgments.
Usually - it is in the best interests of both parties to compromise and settle and avoid the more lengthy and generally more expensive court costs and potential for losses - but that doesn't mean it all arbitrations end quickly.
As we have seen - this one is a fairly drawn out arbitration so far. Although - if the arbitrator has dismissed the motion that the CRO has grounds for outright dismissal, then that suggests that CVM has a leg to stand on in asking for damages.
Doesn't mean the (we) will get any,..... but its a step in the right direction.
