[2002] EWCA Civ 11 22 January [2003]. Appellant contractor (F) engaged respondent (L) as a subcontractor to supply and fit panelling. Subcontractor incorporated the conditions in standard GC/Works/Subcontract. Interim disputes were to be solved with reference to an adjudicator as stated in the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 s108. L stopped work after a dispute arose over repayment; eventually the adjudicator determined the dispute and made an award to L but F failed to pay and L brought court proceedings. F appealed. L argued that an adjudicator's decision was binding and enforceable pending final resolution of the dispute by arbitration or litigation. Appeal dismissed.
