Gurumurthy Kalyanaram, Reports on The Dispute between Venezuela and Gold Reserve, Inc.

Gurumurthy Kalyanaram - Dean and former NYIT and UT Dallas professor, and expert witness, Gurumurthy Kalyanaram reports on the Dispute between Venezuela and Gold Reserve, Inc.

This dispute was adjudicated through a mandated arbitration instead of a lawsuit in a court.  Arbitration is a more cost-effective and timely mechanism to resolve disputes, because lawsuits in courts and their adjudication can be very time-consuming and expensive.  Though arbitration can be more efficient, it also does not have the rigor of a court litigation because of the rules of evidence are not as tight in an arbitration proceeding.
