چکیده

شناسایی و اجرای رای داوری آخرین مرحله از حل و فصل اختلافات  از طریق داوری است که به موجب آن رای داور  همانند آرای محاکم قابلیت اجرا  توسط اجرای احکام  می یابد و بر همین پایه شناسایی و اجرای رای زیر نظر دادگاه‌ها می‌تواند ضمانت اجرای مناسبی برای اعمال رای داوری فراهم آورد. از این رو، اگرچه امروزه موضوع شناسایی رای داوری در نوشته‌های حقوقی به‌طور غالب در داوری تجاری بین‌المللی مورد بحث قرار گرفته و در داوری های داخلی چندان مطمحِ نظر قرار نگرفته است اما شناسایی رای داوری در حقوق داخلی نیز باید قبل از اجرای رای داوری در دادگاه‌ها  مورد توجه قرار گیرد. با بررسی رویه قضایی به‌نظر می‌رسد در حقوق داخلی نیز اجرای رای داوری  ابتدا نیازمند شناسایی  آن از سوی محاکم قضایی است.   شناسایی آرای داور در محاکم قضایی عمدتا با تقدیم  درخواست‌ اجرای آرای داوری از سوی اشخاص ذینفع انجام شده  و دادگاهها  بدون ورود در ماهیت دعوا و صرفاً با بررسی شرایط صدور رای داور از منظر رعایت قوانین داخلی به صدور قرار قبولی و یا رد رای داوری اقدام می کنند. برهمین پایه، برخی  شناسایی رای داوری را نیازمند طرح دعوا در قالب دادخواست و رعایت اصول شکلی آن از جمله پرداخت هزینه دادرسی می‌دانند، و    اقدام دادگاه در شناسایی یا عدم شناسایی رای داور غالبا   تصمیم و نه حکم تلقی شده  که این تصمیم  همانند سایر احکام و قرارها قابل تجدیدنظر می باشد.

چکیده [English]

Recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards by the competent court  when the judgment debtor does not comply with the award willingly is the last step in the settlement of a disputes through an agreed arbitration procedure. The recognition of the arbitral award by a court grants the arbitration awards an enforceability likewise the judgement of a courts. Recognition and enforcement of arbitration awards by the courts upscales such awards to an enforceable and binding level as it’s enforceability has been endorsed by the law. Moreover, when an arbitral award has been recognized by the court, then the outstanding case shall enjoy the status of a res judicata award which bars the parties to the dispute to take the case to the court or the arbitral tribunal again. The recognition of arbitral award has been mainly focused in international arbitration and in international legal literature such New York Convention on Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (1958) as well as in ICSID Convention for settlement of disputes between foreign investors and sates. However, less attention has been paid to the step of recognition in national arbitration awards, yet it calls for a closer consideration under the national applicable law of the seat of arbitration or the place of its enforcement. The study of judicial precedents in Iran proves that recognition of an arbitral award is likewise a prerequisite for its enforcement. Under Iranian law an arbitral award could be enforced by the court when it does not contradicting the public policy, mandatory rules of law, and the rules of substantial law  granting/securing  a right. Consequently, when a court order for enforcement of an arbitral award, in fact the court has preliminary recognized its enforceability and its conformity with  these three said criteria. In this way, the recognition of a national arbitral award should be considered as a distinguished step in the process of its enforcement. This paper, by looking to the Iranian court precedent, intends to answer to the questions relating to the legal nature and consequences of recognition of a national arbitral award, as well as explaining the procedural rules applicable to this concept, such as the method and form which should be followed for such a request, the legal nature of the court’s decision on this matter, and whether this decision is subject to appeal or not.  However, it should be noted that, due to lack of an integrated system for record and publishing of court’s judgments in Iran this research has been confined to the available records.
Under Iranian court’s practice and precedent, the recognition of an arbitral award may be requested from the competent court by a “request” from the beneficiary party and  it is not necessary to file a “petition” as requested for bringing substantial claims before a court . The court shall deal with such a request as a matter of procedure and not as a matter of substance by checking the procedures followed by the arbitral tribunal. The court may not invite the parties for a hearing session and is not obliged to follow the default rules set out for proceedings in other cases. The decision of the court on the matter of recognition shall be in the form of and “order or decision” by the court, not a judgment, stating the recognition or rejection of the arbitral award. Such a decision may be subject to an appeal like any other decisions of the courts. If the arbitral award has not been recognized by the court, which means in practice the request for its recognition and enforcement has been rejected by the court, the same case cannot be heard by the arbitral tribunal again, but it should be heard by the competent court. However, according to the dominant practice of the courts, the arbitration agreement shall be survived for any other disputes might arise out of the same contract.
In the light of judicial policy of Iranian government to pursue people to the out of court settlement of their economic and commercial disputes, in particular by promoting  mediation and arbitration, Iranian courts have recently shown more tendency to support and help in recognition and enforcement of national arbitration awards. This approach has been demonstrated in the court decisions and judicial precedent referred to in this paper. In brief, the importance of  stage of recognition of an arbitral award should not be broadly interpreted by the courts to jeopardies the said policy,  promotion of arbitration and enforceability of the arbitral awards.
