Journal Title: ADR. Arbitraż i Mediacja - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 40
Abstract
The subject matter of this article consists in the assessment of the impact of the effective withdrawal of a claim in the arbitration proceedings on the interruption of statutes of limitations of claims sought in this proceeding, which arose in connection with the initiation of these proceedings. An analysis of possible solutions in this respect leads to the conclusion that the first sentence of the Article 2032 of the Polish Code of Civil Proceedings (CCP) governing the effects of the withdrawal of a claim in the civil proceedings before the state courts shall be applied respectively subject to the parties’ right to opt out from its application by their agreement (which also includes admissibility of adopting any rules of permanent courts of arbitration or rules governing ad hoc arbitrations run under the Polish lex arbitri governing the issue in question in a different manner than the abovementioned provision). As a consequence, it should be assumed that the termination of arbitration proceedings caused by the withdrawal of a claim leads to the annulment of the interruption of the run of the limitation caused by the initiation of these proceedings, unless the parties agreed otherwise, i.e. by restoring the application of a general rule of the Polish substantive law in this respect (i.e. the Article 124 (2) of the Polish Civil Code), which provides for statutes of limitations running anew from the time of the completion of the proceedings.
