17A Withdrawal of application

(1) A claimant may withdraw an adjudication application at any time--

(a) before an adjudicator is appointed to determine the application, or

(b) if an adjudicator has been appointed--before the application is determined,

by serving written notice of the withdrawal on the respondent and on the authorised nominating authority or the adjudicator (if any).

(2) If an adjudicator has been appointed to determine an adjudication application, the withdrawal of the application does not have effect if any other party to the construction contract concerned objects to the withdrawal and, in the opinion of the adjudicator, it is in the interests of justice to uphold the objection.
