The Spanish Constitutional Court admits the withdrawal of the action for annulment of the arbitration award
The Constitutional Court Judgment of June 15, 2020 admits the withdrawal of the action for annulment of the arbitration award against the criteria of the Superior Court of Justice of Madrid that rejected the withdrawal for reasons of public order.
The Madrid Superior Court has had a broad interpretation of public order in the control of arbitration awards. In this case, its ruling didn't even allow the parties, in a civil lawsuit, to dispose of their action, something that has been corrected by the highest constitutional interpreter.
