| Summary | The Claimant sought enforcement of award rendered on 7 December 1999 in the Russian Federation by the Court of International Commercial Arbitration at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ICAC). The Oberlandesgericht (Higher Regional Court) Cologne granted enforcement, holding that the Claimant had fulfilled the formal conditions for enforcement under Article IV NYC by supplying a certified copy of the award and agreement. According to the Oberlandesgericht, Article IV NYC is a provision that purely concerns evidence. Article IV(1)(a) NYC lists the documents through which the authenticity of the award can be proven, if disputed by the party contesting enforcement. In this case, the Claimant was not required to prove the existence and authenticity of the original award, as this was not in dispute. |
