SCC Expedited Arbitration Rules (2023)
(1) A party to the arbitration may request the Board to join one or more additional parties to the arbitration.
(2) The request for joinder shall be made as early as possible. A request for joinder made after the submission of the answer will not be considered unless the Board decides otherwise. Articles 6 and 7 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the request for joinder.
(3) Arbitration against the additional party shall be deemed to commence on the date the SCC receives the request for joinder.
(4) The Secretariat shall set a time period within which the additional party shall submit an answer to the request for joinder. Article 9 applies mutatis mutandis to the answer to the request for joinder.
(5) The Board may decide to join one or more additional parties provided that the SCC does not manifestly lack jurisdiction over the dispute between the parties, including any additional party requested to be joined to the arbitration, pursuant to Article 13 (i).
(6) In deciding whether to grant the request for joinder where claims are made under more than one arbitration agreement, the Board shall consult with the parties and shall have regard to Article 15 (3) (i)-(iv).
(7) In all cases where the Board decides to grant the request for joinder, any decision as to the Arbitrator’s jurisdiction over any party joined to the arbitration shall be made by the Arbitrator.
(8) Where the Board decides to grant the request for joinder and the additional party does not agree to the Arbitrator already appointed, the Board may release the Arbitrator and make an appointment in accordance with Article 18 (2)–(4), unless all parties, including the additional party, agree on a different procedure for the appointment of the Arbitrator.
