More than the most prestigious regatta and match race in the sport of sailing, the America''s Cup is a test of boat design, sail design, fundraising, and management skills. It is not surprising that its passionate skippers, builders and managers should often become embroiled in disputes. Recognising this, and to minimise jurisdictional delays and inefficiencies, the Cup''s organisation has included its own dispute resolution system for many years.During the 32nd edition of the Cup (Valencia 2003-2007) a five-member arbitration panel, called ''Jury'', was appointed with very wide jurisdiction i...
More than the most prestigious regatta and match race in the sport of sailing, the America''s Cup is a test of boat design, sail design, fundraising, and management skills. It is not surprising that its passionate skippers, builders and managers should often become embroiled in disputes. Recognising this, and to minimise jurisdictional delays and inefficiencies, the Cup''s organisation has included its own dispute resolution system for many years.
During the 32nd edition of the Cup (Valencia 2003-2007) a five-member arbitration panel, called ''Jury'', was appointed with very wide jurisdiction in respect of both legal and sporting matters. Although the Jury''s decisions are not binding in future Cup''s, experience has proven that they may assist whoever is involved in forthcoming competitions. In validation of this recognition, as was done following the 31st America''s Cup (Auckland 2000-2003), this book compiles all the decisions rendered in the cases submitted to the 32nd Cup Jury. This entails forty-three decisions in all, encompassing thirty-six decisions on the merits, as well as a series of interim, provisional or partial decisions and, in one case, a dissenting opinion.
AMONG THE SUBJECTS OF DISPUTE ARE THE FOLLOWING:
In addition to the full texts of the decisions, the book includes the America''s Cup Deed of Gift (the ''constitutional'' document), the Protocol governing the 32nd America''s Cup, Rules of Procedure, Terms of Challenge, as well as applicable anti-doping and anti-gambling rules. A valuable introduction written by the Jury members offers a first hand perspective, in addition to historical and legal background.
Finally, of interest for practitioners in general is the symbiosis established between the America''s Cup organisation and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). At the request of the Jury, WIPO developed a customised web-based electronic case facility (ECAF) for the rapid and secure administration of disputes - a facility now available in the context of other sporting events and for intellectual property disputes in general. With detailed information on this system, along with the book''s many insights into the kinds of issues that fuel disputes in sports events (and their resolutions), The 32nd America''s Cup Jury and its Decisions offers a significant extension of the knowledge base available to lawyers and scholars in several branches of law and legal practice.
