https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=105718 A petition seeking reference to arbitration was held not maintainable where the claimant had earlier issued a written full and final settlement acknowledgement and did not specifically plead coercion, fraud, misrepresentation, mistake, or lack of free consent. A settlement letter accepted willingly carries legal effect and cannot be disregarded merely because arbitration is later invoked. In the absence of a categorical challenge to the settlement in the pleadings, no subsisting arbitrable dispute was shown, and the court would not permit a roving inquiry into settled accounts. The dispute was therefore not referred to arbitration. en-us Mon, 30 Oct 2000 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 07 Mar 2012 12:31:48 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=105718 A petition seeking reference to arbitration was held not maintainable where the claimant had earlier issued a written full and final settlement acknowledgement and did not specifically plead coercion, fraud, misrepresentation, mistake, or lack of free consent.
