If you are going to NYC you can't meet with business partners straight away, NY/NJ/CT require you to quarantine (just like when you arrive in India): https://coronavirus.health.ny.gov/co...ravel-advisory
Quarantine rules apply only for interstate travel (the list of states are provided). You're fine traveling the north east. However if you go to CA, TX MN etc. and you return to NY/NJ you will need to quarantine.

the situation worldwide is changing pretty quickly so we have no clue what situation we will be in in another 3 weeks time when i'm supposed to travel....its possible usa might start allowing transit through the eu or they may close down international flights altogether....all we can do at this time is to wait & watch....

Weird that India is not on the list, god knows what the CDC is using to decide the countries: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019...countries.html

That alone would be a reason to ask for the arbitration to be held via video conference... all my meetings with the EU and US authorities have moved to Skype or Webex since May. Works fine, although watching US commissioners you always see on a podium sitting in their living rooms is distracting.

apparently the self quarantine doesn't apply for international travel from india because for some strange reason usa doesn't consider india a red zone....
there are some aspects of the arbitration that can't be held via online conference....cross examination of a witness being one of them....so the arbitrator is unwilling to hold any part of the hearing online because he claims that if we are required to gather for one part of the hearing then we may as well hold the hearing over the course of a few days & finish it off....

However, given how things keep changing and how unsupportive the airlines have been through this it might not be a wise idea to plan/book tickets right now.

Not all OCIs. There are plenty of T&Cs about the type of OCI. However family emergencies (including aged parents needing help/support) counts.

Yes, absolutely, one should not make plans to go to India just for the heck of it...
Needless to say, an OCI will have to trek to the nearest embassy / consulate and get "permission" to be placed in to a "travel-approved OCI" category.

facial expression & body language is not really a concern....the fact that cannot be controlled on an online hearing is if the witness is being coached by the opposite counsel or anyone else....

“Pregnant women, for those who have suffered death in the family, those suffering from serious illness and parents of children below 10 years of age or only transiting DEL”
How you prove you have a kid... I don’t know. Perhaps a birth certificate? Or maybe purchasing an onward ticket from DEL....

No that’s not an exemption criteria. However you might qualify under one of these:
“Pregnant women, for those who have suffered death in the family, those suffering from serious illness and parents of children below 10 years of age or only transiting DEL”

As the skies open up and we have more and more flights that come in... I suspect many of the airport hotels designated for this will also become full fairly quickly.
