Abstract :
Background and Aim: The case is heard in two or more courts in parallel for various reasons, including the confidentiality of the arbitration process and it is done quickly and at a lower cost. These advantages have led to a serious challenge, which is parallel and multiple handling, which seems to be open to criticism. The arbitration process may be accompanied by another arbitration or simultaneous adjudication in a national or international court.Method: In this article, the authors will explain the subject in a descriptive-analytical manner.Findings and Results: Among the disadvantages of this method are the delay in the proceedings and the increase in costs and the issuance of contradictory verdicts. Parallel litigation can also violate the principle of legal certainty and challenge the validity of arbitration as a form of dispute resolution. The purpose of arbitration is achieved only when it can resolve the dispute between the parties. If, when there is a dispute in the proper examination, a similar or identical claim is under consideration in another arbitral tribunal or there is a possibility that it will be presented in another court, the arbitral tribunal has failed to fulfill its purpose and mission.
