It is aimed at examining the applicability of these principles in Nigerian courts as it relate to international commercial dispute resolution and the court that has jurisdiction over transnational dispute and how the applicability of these principles will assist in the speedy dispensation of justice.

The study also identified the prospect of the applicability of these ALI and UNIDROIT principles. The main sources of information and data collection for this study were the primary sources being the ALI and UNIDROIT principles and the secondary source from Civil Procedure text books, the internet and journals.
