This article will explain how to use the basic filters in the Disputes and Dispute Documents Library, and ensure you understand what each filter means.

Filter Overview

Once you land in the Dispute Documents Library, you will be presented with a list of all disputes and dispute documents in an expandable tree format. You will be able to filter this list by using the basic filters, available at the top of the screen.

Language: This filter will allow you to select to view documents in a specific language. You will be able to select as many language filters as you would like.

Date Range: This filter will show you documents that correspond with the given date range. For disputes, this means the “Date of Registration” and for dispute documents, this is simply the date of that document. 

Document Type: This filter will allow you to view only disputes that contain dispute documents of the selected type(s), or if viewing only dispute documents, only those that match the selected type. 

Respondent State: This filter will show you disputes and dispute documents where the selected country is involved. 

Applicable Treaty: This filter will show you disputes and dispute documents where the selected treaty has been applied.

Applicable Arbitration Rules: This filter will show you disputes and dispute documents where the selected arbitration rules have been applied.

How to Apply Filters

Once you are satisfied with your filter selection, press “Submit Search” below the filter options to apply them. The list will change to show dispute documents or disputes that match your filter criteria.

Pressing the “x” button beside the chips representing the applied filters will clear them from the listing page, and bring you back to your list as it was.
