SQD v QYP
[2023] EWHC 2145 (Comm)
Key Principle
The English court will not ordinarily grant an anti-suit injunction to restrain foreign proceedings brought in breach of an arbitration agreement where the seat of arbitration is in a jurisdiction (here Paris) whose courts do not themselves grant such relief, because the anti-suit remedy is tied to the seat rather than to the law governing the arbitration agreement.
