   TOPIC  3. CONDUCT   OF  PROCEEDINGS TO ENFORCE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT

§ 2.29. Availability of Anti-Suit Injunction in Aid of Arbitration

S.D.N.Y.2024. Cit. in sup. (citing § 2.29 of T.D. No. 4, 2015, which is now § 2.29 of the Official Text).
Petitioner filed an application for confirmation ofan arbitration award it had obtained against respondent
in connection with a dispute over the ownership of preferred shares in a gas company. Granting in part
petitioner's application, this court held that the arbitrator did not err in awarding damages against
respondent for intentional violations of an injunction issued in petitioner's separate bankruptcy
proceedings. The court cited Restatement Third of the U.S. Law of International Commercial and
Investor-State Arbitration § 2.29 in noting that a court had the authority to enjoin a party to an
international arbitration agreement from initiating or maintaining litigation before another court only if
the arbitration agreement was enforceable, the party being enjoined was bound by the arbitration
agreement, and issuance of the injunction was appropriate considering, among other things, which court
had the greater interest in ruling on the enforceability of the arbitration agreement. Eletson Holdings,

parties; the arbitration award confirmed that the preferred shares had been transferred by holding
company to nominees that it had selected and were not owned by subsidiary, and awarded damages and
fees to the nominees and against subsidiary and two nonparties that the arbitrator determined were
subsidiary's alter egos. This court denied in part holding company's petition, holding that the arbitrator
exceeded its authority in awarding damages against a nonparty based on the involuntary bankruptcy
