Ostvarivanje arbitražnih odluka u rimskom pravu

Arbitražni postupak u rimskome pravu završava arbitrovom odlukom, no funkcija i smisao arbitraže nastaju tek njezinim ostvarivanjem. Najraširenije vrste arbitraža u rimskome pravu bile su ili isključivo ili prevladavajuće privatni postupci koji su završavali arbitrovom odlukom koja nije bila ostvariva prisilom rimske države. Budući da je arbitrova odluka u rimskome pravu sve do 530. godine bila pravno nesankcionirana kategorija, u arbitražnoj praksi razvio se niz mehanizama kojima se posrednim putem postizala vezanost stranaka odlukom arbitra.

U ovome se radu ovisno o pojedinoj vrsti arbitraže rimskoga prava (boni viri i ex compromisso) analizira način ostvarivanja arbitrove odluke.

Arbitrations handled by boni viri and those arranged ex compromisso were private proceedings which ended in arbitral awards that were legally unsanctioned. This meant that their enforcement overseen by the authority of the Roman state was not available. From its earliest period Roman law developed a range of legal mechanisms by which the enforcement of such awards was achieved indirectly. In arbitration handled by boni viri this goal was achieved by way of non-legal pressure exerted by the social environment. By using this means the society gave authority and non-legal binding force to arbitrations boni viri. In case of arbitration ex compromisso (the most common type of arbitration in classical and pre- classical Rome) enforcement of an arbitral award was achieved by stipulating a conventional penalty in the arbitral agreement. The conventional penalty was a predictable property loss addressed to the par
