A simple disaster - 2005 - Building 270(8372) 11 March 2005, 59(1) .
Discusses the case of "Collins (Contractors) Ltd v Baltic Quay Management (1994) Ltd" ([2004] EWCA) Civ 1757, Times 3 January 2005) which demonstrates the problems of assuming a dispute does not exist and bypassing arbitration. Points out that Collins wasted a year in litigation against Baltic Quay Management in an attempt to collect a payment of £28 331, as its claim that there was no dispute was not correct. It was stated that the case should have gone to arbitration or adjudication.
