Individual entrepreneur A.B. Petushkov filed a lawsuit with the arbitration court against Novosibcontrast OJSC for recognition of the sale contract and application of the consequences of its invalidity. On June 15, 2004, at the hearing, the defendant filed a motion to adjourn the case, since he needed to conclude an agreement with a lawyer to represent his interests in the arbitration court. A.B. Petushkov expressed his objection to the application, as he participates in court without a representative, otherwise the principle of equality of arms will be violated.
What definition, in your opinion, should an arbitration court make?
If the defendant’s petition is granted, will the principle of equality of arms be violated at the hearing?
If the application is denied, will the principles of the arbitration process be violated and which ones?
