The arbitration provisions contain elements of judicial verdicts, judicial order and it remains enforceable in accordance with the law, but shall not be subject to judicial supervision.

As the principle of arbitration stipulates the limitation of the cases of nullity, this was a beneficial reason to challenge the unconstitutionality of this principle, and the extent to which this principle is compatible with well-known constitutional principles, such as the right of litigation and the right of equality.
