List-only Services
Introduction
This service has two options depending on the parties’ needs. The first option applies when all parties agree to a list provided by the SCCA. The second option applies when only one side needs this service.
The parties to a dispute agree that the SCCA provide a list of 5, 10 or 15 candidates based on qualifications, expertise and other factors requested by the parties in writing or during an administrative conference call. This service is suitable for situations where the selection of a sole arbitrator, three arbitrators or the presiding arbitrator is needed. Additional lists can be obtained subject to party-agreement and payment of an additional service fee.The SCCA’s List-only Service ends with the submission of the list, along with the candidates’ resumes, to all parties.
- Option 2 (one side only):
One party may ask the SCCA for a list of 5, 10 or 15 candidates based on qualifications, expertise and other factors requested by that party in writing or during an administrative conference call. This service is suitable for situations where the arbitration agreement calls on each side to appoint an arbitrator, and the two party-appointed arbitrators shall then appoint the chairperson. It provides the requesting party with access to a list of qualified arbitrators with subject-matter expertise from which to select its party-appointed arbitrator. The other side is not involved in this process and is usually not copied. Additional lists can be obtained subject to payment of an additional service fee. The SCCA’s involvement ends with the submission of the list, along with the candidates’ resumes, to the requesting party.
- List of 5 names: SAR 3,000 (SAR 1,500 for any additional list of 5 names)
- List of 10 names: SAR 4,000 (SAR 2,000 for any additional lists of 10 names)
- List of 15 names: SAR 5,000 (SAR 2,500 for any additional lists of 15 names)
The service fee is due and payable at the time of the submission of the service request. If the SCCA determines, in its sole discretion, that it is unable to compile a suitable list of candidates after completing a full search of its SCCA Arbitrator Roster, the SCCA will refund the full service fee for that list.
