Sec. 20-30.
Statements of claim and defense.
(a) Within the period of time agreed by the parties or
determined by the arbitral tribunal, the claimant shall state the
facts supporting his or her claim, the points at issue, and the relief or
remedy sought, and the respondent shall state his or her defense in
respect of these particulars, unless the parties have otherwise
agreed as to the required elements of the statements. The parties
may submit with their statements all documents they consider to be
relevant or may add a reference to the documents or other evidence
they will submit.
(b) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, either party may
amend or supplement its claim or defense during the course of the
arbitral proceedings, unless the arbitral tribunal considers it
inappropriate to allow the amendment, having regard to the delay in
making it.
