The article is devoted to the consideration of the actual problems of the application

by the state courts of a public policy exception in the process dedicated to cancellation

(enforcement) of arbitral awards on the grounds of concentration of publicly significant

elements in the legal relationship, so the arbitral award declaring contrary to the

fundamental legal principles (public policy). The purpose of this article is to identify and

analyze those grounds, the complex of which courts justify as the presence or absence in

the legal relationship of such a concentration of publicly significant elements, an analysis

of judicial practice in which the courts faced such a question, as well as assessment of such

practice. In particular, complex of the following circumstances is recognized by the courts

as a basis for ascertaining the presence of such a concentration of publicly significant

elements in the legal relationship: the use of budget funds, the determination of state

participation, and the public interest in legal relations. The article analyzes each of these

grounds and the way in which the presence or absence of such grounds is established in

the legal relationship. Moreover, this article considers the possibility of using estoppel in

respect of a party that did not object to the competence of arbitral tribunal and raised

objections only after a decision against it had been taken.

Keywords: civil procedure; civil law; international private law; arbitral tribunal;

enforcement of arbitral award; cancellation of arbitral award; public policy.
