Abstract

This chapter analyses choice of court agreements under Turkish private international law. Turkish private international law recognizes the freedom of the parties to conclude an agreement which designates Turkish courts and/or foreign courts as having jurisdiction for the resolution of their existing or future legal disputes under certain conditions. In this chapter first, agreements granting jurisdiction to foreign courts are examined, mainly through the requirements and consequences of forming such an agreement. Next, rules governing agreements granting jurisdiction to Turkish courts are explained. Following this, asymmetrical jurisdiction agreements are discussed. Subsequently, the requirements for the recognition and enforcement of a foreign judgment rendered by a court designated through a jurisdiction agreement are explained. Finally, discussions regarding co-existing jurisdiction and arbitration clauses are assessed. Notwithstanding the need to reform particular aspects of Turkish law in relation to jurisdiction agreements, it is concluded that the Turkish legal framework in this area is sufficient for both Turkish and foreign parties to securely conclude choice of court agreements.

In one of its decisions, the Civil General Assembly of Court of Cassation examined a choice of court agreement under a credit contract involving a foreign element: Case no. 1998/12-287, Decision no. 1998/325, Date 06.05.1998 (www.kazanci.com). In another decision, the Court of Cassation decided on the presence of a foreign element due to the fact that the company where the claimant was working was registered in a foreign state. 9th Civil Chamber of Court of Cassation, Case no. 2016/28517, Decision no. 2016/20723, Date 24.11.2016 (www.kanunum.com).

In the case where there is a valid jurisdiction agreement authorizing foreign courts, Art. 31 of the former code no. 2675 stipulated that “Turkish courts shall have jurisdiction if the foreign court decides that it has no jurisdiction”. On the other hand, the relevant wording under Art. 47 of the PIL Code is as follows: “The competent Turkish court shall have jurisdiction only if the foreign court decides that it has no jurisdiction”.

The doctrine of forum non conveniens originated from the Scottish law and is currently applied in the United States of America, England, and other common law countries. According to this doctrine, a court which has jurisdiction to hear a case may decide not to hear the case, if there is another court which is more closely related to the dispute and so is capable to render a better judgment.

On the other hand, there is an opposing view within academic commentary with regards to the process of raising the plea of lis alibi pendens. Accordingly, the plea of lis alibi pendens shall be raised as a primary objection for the reason that a Turkish judge may not be able to examine whether there is an ongoing action in a foreign forum. Authors argue that this rule under the CCP was stipulated for domestic cases where it is convenient for the Turkish judge to examine ex officio whether there is an ongoing action before another Turkish court. For this view see: Çelikel and Erdem (2017), p. 640.

The Turkish courts’ approach in relation to grant interim measures where the parties have authorized a foreign court through a jurisdiction agreement contrasts with the view of the doctrine. In a dispute where the parties had signed an arbitration clause and the arbitral process had begun, one of the parties wanted to obtain an interim measure. First Instance Civil Court of Şanlıurfa (which is a city in south eastern Turkey) decided that due to the arbitration agreement between the parties authorizing International Cotton Association Arbitration as the competent authority to decide on the merits of the case, Turkish courts did not have jurisdiction to render interim measures (Case no. 2012/190 Decision no. 2012/189 Date 9.11.2012). The case is not published. For further information on this case see: Arslan (2016), pp. 691–727.

Foreign court decisions regarding guardianship used to be categorically regarded as an issue of Turkish public policy. See: Civil General Assembly of the Turkish Court of Cassation, Case no. 2009/2-557, Decision no. 2009/527, Date 18.11.2009; Civil General Assembly of the Turkish Court of Cassation, Case no. 2009/2-280, Decision No 2009/326, Date 08.07.2009 (www.kazanci.com).

Where the place of arbitration is Turkey and the dispute involves a foreign element, the Turkish International Arbitration Act determines the validity of an arbitration agreement. According to Art. 4 of the Turkish International Arbitration Act, the validity of an arbitration agreement is determined in line with the chosen law by the parties to apply to the arbitration agreement or where there is no such choice made, by Turkish law.
