Dispute Prevention Resource Centre

Databases

Resource Library:

A collection of references and publications (books, articles, peer-reviewed journals, etc.) on topics related to alternative dispute resolution.  

This specialized Resource Library constitutes a very rich source of information to anyone interested in dispute prevention and dispute resolution.  While some documents address general issues on alternative dispute resolution, a large number of publications also apply these general principles to the very particular situation of sports-related disputes. Several publications in sport law, in sport management, and in management of not-for-profit organizations also provide useful information for dispute prevention.

All publications, indexed as Books or Periodicals, are available at the SDRCC office in Montreal for on-site consultation.

Jurisprudence Database:

WE ARE CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES WITH OUR JURISPRUDENCE DATABASE.

AS A RESULT OF THIS SITUATION, ALL DECISIONS RENDERED BY SDRCC ARBITRATORS SINCE AUGUST 2009 ARE NOT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE JURISPRUDENCE DATABASE. HOWEVER THE MOST RECENT DECISIONS ARE POSTED ON THE HOME PAGE OF THE WEBSITE.

SHOULD YOU REQUIRE ANY ASSISTANCE PLEASE CONTACT THE SDRCC OFFICE AND WE WILL BE GLAD TO ASSIST. WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE. WE HOPE TO HAVE THIS RESOLVED SHORTLY.

A collection of all decisions rendered by SDRCC arbitrators since the establishment of its services, including those rendered under the interim ADRsportRED program and those rendered by the CCES Doping Panel prior to June 1, 2004.The decisions can be searched by using the names of parties or of arbitrators, dates, types of dispute, or other keywords. The database contains, for each case, the full text of the decision rendered by the arbitrator as well as, when applicable, a summary version highlighting background facts, the parties' positions, arbitrator's analysis and decision, and lessons learned from the case. The content of this database is a powerful tool for NSOs and MSOs in learning from other organizations' disputes and adapting their own policies and procedures to avoid such disputes from arising in their organization. As in case law, the database can also help parties to a dispute evaluate their chances of success by consulting previous decisions rendered in similar situations.
