Interim measures in arbitration proceedings

One of the most significant aspects of arbitration proceedings is the protection of the rights of individuals engaged in business activities that have been violated or are in dispute. The institution of interim measures as part of the arbitration process ensures effective and immediate protection of the interests of business entities, as well as the enforceability of decisions made by the arbitral tribunal. Despite the comprehensive legislative regulation of this mechanism within modern procedural law, there may still be challenges in its implementation in practice. The Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, № 15, adopted on 06/01/2023, "On Some Issues of Court Adoption of Measures to Secure a Claim, Interim Measures and Measures of Preliminary Protection", the analysis of which is devoted to solving problems arising in judicial practice, is being conducted. The purpose of this study is to analyze the current norms of arbitration procedural legislation governing the use of interim measures and the practice of their application in the arbitration process. A significant part of the study will be devoted to a detailed analysis of statistical data on judicial practice over the past few years. In this paper, the author will propose a definition of interim measures that currently do not exist in legislation, examine their classification, and analyze the grounds for their application. Each type of interim measure will be analyzed separately, and the procedural aspects of their application will be considered. Throughout the research, some issues related to the practical implementation of the institute of interim measures within the arbitration process will be identified.At the same time, the results of the research conducted can be seen as logical conclusions about the extreme practical importance of the institute of interim measures in arbitration proceedings. This serves the purpose of improving the efficiency of arbitration processes and implementing guarantees for the judicial protection of business entities' rights. This, in turn, is a fundamental factor in ensuring the stability of economic activity within the developing Russian economy.
