Article 54/2 of the Arbitration Law

The competent Court for annulment suit


Article 54/2 

 " Jurisdiction with regard to an action for the annulment of awards made in international commercial arbitration lies with the court referred to in Article 9 of this Law. In cases not related to international commercial arbitration, jurisdiction lies with the court of appeal having competence over the tribunal that would have initially had jurisdiction to adjudicate the dispute
