The Eastern High Court granted recognition and enforcement of two awards – one on jurisdiction and one on the merits – rendered by a sole arbitrator of the London Maritime Arbitrators’ Association. Spinnaker argued that exequatur would violate public policy, because the arbitrator had incorrectly applied the law and assessed evidence to hold that an arbitration agreement existed between the parties. The Court pointed out that it could not carry out a review of the award, and held that the alleged violation did not meet the standard of Sect. 39(1)(2)(b) of the Danish Arbitration Act, which mirrors Art. V(2)(b) of the New York Convention, since the arbitrator’s decision was not so materially erroneous as to be manifestly incompatible with Danish public policy.
