Century Surety Co. v. P&S Fashions
A business sustained personal property loss in a fire. Pursuant to the terms of an insurance contract between the business and its insurer, two party-appointed appraisers and one court-appointed umpire appraised the actual cash value of the loss. Two of the three appraisal panel members agreed on the award. The trial court confirmed and declined to vacate the award. On appeal, the business contends the award exceeded the appraisers jurisdiction and was the result of fraud, corruption or misconduct. Because substantial evidence supports the finding that these limited grounds for judicial review of a non-judicial arbitration award do not exist, Court affirm.
