MORGAN v. JAMS/ENDISPUTE
If an arbitrator withdraws from an arbitration proceeding for no stated ethical reason following evidence and argument as well as offers to continue mediation efforts but refuses to render an arbitration award, does the doctrine of arbitral immunity protect the arbitrator from suit? Court held such conduct defeats rather than serves the adjudicatory purpose of arbitration, arbitral immunity does not apply.
