In their Arbitration column, Samuel Estreicher, Rex Heinke and Jessica Weisel discuss a case that will be before the U.S. Supreme Court in the October term, 'Servotronics v. Rolls-Royce PLC', which asks the court to resolve a circuit split over the role, if any, that federal courts should play in facilitating discovery in foreign arbitrations. In what looks like a simple matter of statutory interpretation—defining the term "tribunal"—the case may shed new light on how the current court approaches traditional interpretive tools.

In this edition of their International Litigation column, Lawrence W. Newman and David Zaslowsky examine the common practice in international arbitration of presenting direct witness testimony though witness statements provided in advance of the oral hearing. They consider the effect such written evidence may have, or not have, on arbitral tribunals when there is no live cross-examination of the witness at the hearing before the tribunal. Is there a way in such circumstances for the witness to testify in person after all?
