| Basic Facts | | 基本案情 |
| The claimant, ECOMUSA, INC., held that in 2012, it appealed for an arbitration to International Cotton Association Limited (hereinafter referred as “ICA”) because of the cotton business contract which was between ECOMUSA, INC. and Zhaoli Co., Ltd On 4 January 2013, an arbitral award was made by ICA and then took legal effect, whereas Zhaoli Co.，Ltd. did not execute this arbitral award. For the sake of protecting the legal rights，ECOMUSA, INC. applied for the recognition and execution of this foreign arbitral award according to the law. | | ECOMUSA，INC.申请称：ECOMUSA，INC.因与兆利公司之间存在棉花买卖合同纠纷于2012年向国际棉花协会（TheInternationalCottonAssociationLimited）提起仲裁。2013年1月4日，国际棉花协会作出仲裁裁决。该裁决已经发生法律效力，而兆利公司并未遵照该裁决内容履行，故ECOMUSA，INC.为维护自身合法权益不受侵犯，特依法申请承认该国际仲裁裁决并强制执行。 |
| Zhaoli Co., Ltd. claimed: Firstly, the trade relationship did not exist between Zhaoli Co., Ltd. and ECOMUSA, INC. The sales contract which was provided by ECOMUSA，INC. Did not have any binding force to Zhaoli Co.，Ltd. Neither did Zhaoli Co., Ltd. have an agreement on purchasing 300-ton raw cotton with ECOMUSA, INC. nor stamping the contract with seal and signing the contract. The items in this contract did not have legal binding force on the condition that Zhaoli Co.， Ltd. did not accept the agreement with the legal form of seal and signature. It is incorrect to make this award when ICA does not find out the basic facts. Therefore, the court should not recognize this award. Secondly，this award which was made by ICA violated the demand of due procedure since ICA did not comply with its duty of notification in arbitration process. Zhaoli Co., Ltd. lost the opportunity to respond to the lawsuit because Zhaoli Co., Ltd. did not receive any email or express information from ICA. Thirdly，ICA did not serve the arbitral award to Zhaoli Co.，Ltd. which made Zhaoli Co., Ltd. lose the right to appeal Fourthly, this award which violates the basic principal of taking the law as criterion and the fact as ground and the principal of seeking truth from facts and correcting the mistakes whenever discovered contradicted with the public policy in our country and is against the basic principal of legal due process. Based on the reasons above, the court should refuse to recognize and enforce the award. | | 兆利公司答辩称：一、兆利公司与ECOMUSA，INC.之间不存在法律上的买卖关系。ECOMUSA，INC.所提供的销售合同对兆利公司不具有约束力。兆利公司并没有与ECOMUSA，INC.就购买300吨原棉达成合意，更没有在合同上签字盖章。在兆利公司对销售合同没有以法律形式签字盖章认可的情况下，该合同所拟定的条款没有法律约束力。国际棉花协会在没有查明基本事实的情况下作出仲裁裁决是错误的，不应当得到我国法院的承认。二、国际棉花协会对兆利公司作出的裁决，程序违法。该协会没有履行必要的仲裁通知义务。兆利公司没有收到国际棉花协会的任何邮件和快递信息的通知，导致兆利公司失去应诉的权利。三、国际棉花协会未将仲裁结果通知和送达兆利公司，致使兆利公司失去上诉的权利。四、仲裁裁决与我国的公共秩序相抵触，其违反了我国法律“以事实为根据，以法律为准绳；实事求是，有错必究”的基本原则，违反了我国法律正当法律程序的基本原则。我国法院应拒绝承认和执行。 |
The court found out that on 23 July 2012, ECOMUSA, INC. appealed for an arbitration to ICA, claiming for compensation for USD 207163,73 from Zhaoli Co., Ltd. because of the business contract which was signed between the parties. Zhaoli Co.，Ltd. did not submit any materials to ICA or make any comments during the arbitration procedure. On 4 January 2013, ICA made an arbitral award which ordered Zhaoli Co., Ltd. to pay USD 189765.1 and its interest. Then ECOMUSA, INC. applied for the recognition and enforcement of this award to the court.
