ظرف مدت چهار ماه پس از تسلیم لوایح کتبی یا چاپی (پرونده دعوی) توسط طرفین، هر یک از طرفین میتوانند به همان ترتیب، نسخهای مضاعف از «لایحه متقابل» و همچنین اسناد، مکاتبات و ادله تکمیلی را در پاسخ به لوایح، اسناد، مکاتبات و ادلهای که طرف مقابل ارائه کرده است، به هر یک از داوران مذکور و نماینده طرف مقابل تسلیم نمایند.
Within four months after the delivery on both sides of the written or printed case, either party may, in like manner, deliver in duplicate to each of the said arbitrators, and to the agent of the other party, a counter case and additional documents, correspondence, and evidence in reply to the case, documents, correspondence, and evidence so presented by the other party. The arbitrators may, however, extend the time for delivering such counter case, documents, correspondence, and evidence, when, in their judgment, it becomes necessary, in consequence of the distance of the place from which the evidence to be presented is to be procured. If in the case submitted to the arbitrators either party shall have specified or alluded to any report or document in its own exclusive possession without annexing a copy, such party shall be bound, if the other party thinks proper to apply for it, to furnish that party with a copy thereof; and either party may call upon the other, through the arbitrators, to produce the originals or certified copies of any papers adduced as evidence, giving in each instance such reasonable notice as the arbitrators may require.
