PATNA, India, Oct. 21 -- Patna High Court issued the following judgment on Oct. 4:

The petitioner has sought for appointment of a sole arbitrator. Admittedly, the agreement has an arbitration clause and it requires the arbitrators to be appointed by the Indian Roads Congress. Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that though, an arbitrator was nominated by the respondent, since respondent has objected to the arbitration proceedings, the Indian Roads Congress refused to appoint a Presiding Arbitrator. This has led to the Request Case being filed.
