New York Court of Appeals

American Reserve Insurance Company, Respondent v. China Insurance Company, Limited, Appellant

April 22, 1948297 N.Y. 322

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division, holding that the plaintiff's attachment warrant should not be vacated despite the arbitration clause in the reinsurance treaty; the exclusive remedy for a breach of an arbitration agreement is a statutory stay under the Civil Practice Act, not dismissal of the action.
