In Brief
Vijay Trading and Transport Company challenged an arbitrator's award that upheld termination of a service contract with Central Warehousing Corporation and rejected its counter-claims for equipment loss and detention damages. The Supreme Court affirmed the award, finding concurrent judicial findings that the contractor failed to perform contractually. The Court held the arbitrator was justified in allowing forfeiture of contractor equipment and rejecting counter-claims for compensation. No interference with the award was warranted, and the appeal was dismissed.
