An arbitration agreement encompasses not only the disputes explicitly mentioned in its substantive scope but also cases relating to these disputes. Consequently, the prohibition of hearing the case by the state court is applicable also if the determination of the case presented before the state court and not explicitly covered by an arbitration agreement is impossible without examining a dispute being the subject of such an agreement.
