The Ruling Request Clause Samples

The Ruling Request clause establishes a formal process for one or both parties to seek a decision or interpretation from an authoritative body, such as a court or arbitrator, regarding a specific issue or dispute arising under the agreement. Typically, this clause outlines the steps required to submit a request, the types of matters that can be referred, and any procedural requirements, such as timelines or documentation.
