Fujitsu Software Co. v. Hinman
Howard E. Hinman (Hinman) appeals from a judgment confirming two awards in an arbitration in favor of respondent Fujitsu Software Corp. (FSW), and from a post-judgment order awarding FSW contractual attorney fees as the prevailing party in the confirmation proceedings. Hinman contends the arbitration awards should not have been confirmed because: (1) the arbitrator awarded attorney fees to FSW even though, by Hinmans estimation, he was the prevailing party in the arbitration; and (2) the arbitrator imposed liability on Hinman personally. He further contends that the post-judgment order was erroneous, because the trial court awarded FSW attorney fees in the confirmation proceedings, in addition to what the arbitrator had awarded with respect to the arbitration itself. Court affirm the judgment and the order.
