Arbitration: Vacated Award-Travel Costs-Collective-Bargaining Agreement
Staff Report//April 30, 2019
Where appellant union challenged a district court order vacating an arbitration award originally entered in its favor, seeking reinstatement of the arbitrator’s award, the provisions regarding travel costs construed by the arbitrator were interpreted in light of the relevant collective-bargaining agreement and were rooted in the essence of the contract, so the judgment is reversed.
Judgment is reversed.
