Federal Tribunal holds that Swiss Courts are sufficiently familiar with the English language to dispense the applicant from producing an entire certified translation of the arbitral award for enforcement matters
July 2, 2012

This decision dated July 2, 2012 concerns the New York Convention. As you will see, the case did not involve an appeal against an international arbitral award stricto sensu but rather an appeal against a judgment of the Cantonal Court of Schwyz, which had confirmed a decision of the District Court of Höfe as to the enforcement of an international award in Switzerland.
