Comments
Court is required to record its satisfaction that a foreign award is enforceable
Before proceeding to execute a foreign award as a decree of a court, the court is required to record its satisfaction that such a foreign award is enforceable. This, however, does not mean that court cannot pass any interim order in order to protect interest of person applying for enforcement and execution of a foreign award; Centrotrade Minerals & Metals Inc. v. Hindustan Copper Ltd., AIR 2004 Cal 142.
