Arbitration: Cases and Materials (2011)

Arbitration is strongly favored by the courts, and judicial review of arbitration awards is much more limited than review of trial court decisions. It is important for students to understand the arbitration process because it virtually always results in a final and binding award.

These teaching materials focus primarily on contract-based, binding commercial arbitration. ''Commercial'' includes employment disputes and arbitration between grievance arbitration pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement. Finally, a chapter is devoted to arbitration at the behest of the government, including court-annexed arbitration, that is not based on party assent.
