Are the parties under any duties in relation to the arbitration?

5.3
Are there any provisions of law which deal with multi-party disputes?
Montenegro

Answer ... No, there are no explicit provisions dealing with multi-party disputes in the Arbitration Act. It is therefore likely that any arbitral tribunal in cases involving multi-party disputes will conduct the proceedings in line with the general authority to conduct the arbitration as it deems fit, while observing general principles such as party equality, party autonomy and efficient conduct of the proceedings.
