Question juridique clé
Whether the arbitral tribunal's letter of 29 February 2008 was separately appealable as an interlocutory decision under the Federal Supreme Court Act
Solution extraite
It was not a separately notified interlocutory decision; it was only an information letter on how the tribunal intended to continue the proceedings.
Motifs extraits
The letter did not decide competence or recusal, caused no irreparable harm, and did not resolve an issue capable of leading immediately to a final decision. It lacked sufficient formal qualities, including motivation beyond standing and any indication of remedies.
