If an arbitration petitioner violates the provisions of Article 31, paragraph (1), the arbitral tribunal must make a decision to end the arbitration procedure; provided, however, that this does not apply to cases in which there are justifiable grounds for that violation.
Even if an arbitration respondent has violated the provisions of Article 31, paragraph (2), the arbitral tribunal must continue the arbitration procedure without treating that violation as being the arbitration respondent's admission of the arbitration petitioner's allegations.
If one party fails to appear on the date of oral hearings or to produce documentary evidence, the arbitral tribunal may make an arbitral award on the evidence collected by that time; provided, however, that this does not apply to cases in which there are justifiable grounds for the party to fail to appear at the oral hearings or to produce documentary evidence.
The provisions of the preceding three paragraphs do not apply if otherwise agreed by the parties.
