Successfully obtaining an award from an arbitral tribunal or a judgment from a national court is not always the end of the contentious process. This second of a two-part feature on international dispute resolution considers the differences between enforcing court judgments and arbitral awards by reference to ten jurisdictions. See Location, location, location: the choice of seat in international arbitration at www.practicallaw.com/9-200-8226 for the first part of this feature.
