Abstract
In General Dynamics v. Libya, the UK Supreme Court was asked to decide whether the only means for serving on a sovereign state an order enforcing an international arbitral award under the New York Convention was via diplomatic channels. The Supreme Court decided, by a bare majority, that service via diplomatic channels was mandatory. This case note reviews and analyses the Supreme Court’s decision.
