If a party does not raise jurisdictional points until after the adjudication, what are the likely consequences of this?

It is likely that the court will find that in failing to raise these points earlier, both parties willingly participated in the adjudication process. They will then be deemed to have accepted the adjudicator’s authority to act. See Allied P&L Ltd v Paradigm Housing Group Ltd [2009] EWHC 2890 (TCC), Dalkia Energy and Technical Services Ltd v Bell Group UK Ltd [2009] EWHC 73 (TCC) , Bothma & Anor (t/a DAB Builders) v Mayhaven Healthcare Ltd [2007] EWCA Civ 527 and GPS Marine Contractors Ltd v Ringway Infrastructure Services Ltd [2010] EWHC 283 (TCC) .
