BINDING ARBITRATION PROHIBITED The State of Colorado does not agree to binding arbitration by any extra-judicial body or person. Any provision to the contrary in this contact or incorporated herein by reference shall be null and void.
Disputes; Arbitration (a) If a dispute arises between the parties, the parties agree that their respective representatives shall meet and consult in good faith and attempt to settle the dispute, within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof, as a condition precedent to the initiation of arbitration proceedings as set forth herein. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that any and all disputes with respect to any claim pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association by a panel of three (3) arbitrators appointed pursuant to such Rules, and judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Such arbitrators shall not have the authority or power to reform, alter, amend or modify any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or to enter an award which reforms, alters, amends or modifies such terms or conditions. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the arbitrators shall have no authority to award any punitive damages except upon proof of fraud with intent to deceive. The decision of such arbitrators shall be in writing, setting forth both findings of fact and conclusions of law, and shall be final and conclusive upon the parties; and no suit at law or in equity based on such dispute, controversy or claim shall be instituted by any party hereto, other than to enforce the award of such arbitrators. Such arbitration shall be conducted in Denver, Colorado or in such other location as the parties thereto may agree. (b) In the event of a dispute, the prevailing party shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party or parties for such prevailing party's reasonable attorney's fees and other expenses. (c) The parties agree that as precondition to the commencement of arbitration by any party, the dispute must be submitted to non-binding mediation with a mediator agreed to by both parties. If the parties cannot agree on a mediator within fourteen (14) days from the date of a request for mediation, the dispute will be mediated by a person selected in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
Arbitrator's Jurisdiction The arbitrator shall take such evidence as in his judgment is appropriate for resolution of the dispute; however, he shall confine himself to the issues for arbitration and shall have no authority to determine any other issue not so submitted which is not directly essential to reaching a determination on the dispute at hand. The arbitrator shall have no power to recommend any right or relief for any period of time prior to the effective date of the Agreement under which the grievance was initiated. In those issues wherein the grievant’s relief sought involves back pay or lost wages covering a period of an Employee’s payroll separation due to suspension or discharge, the amount of the award shall be less any unemployment compensation or interim earnings, received by the aggrieved Employee. Second jobs or sources of income which the Employee received while under employment will not be considered interim income and will not be deducted when awarding lost wages or back pay. The decision of the arbitrator shall be submitted in writing to the parties within thirty (30) calendar days of the hearing’s conclusion unless the deadline is mutually extended by the parties. The decision and award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the Union, its members, the aggrieved Employee(s) and the CITY. With respect to grievances involving misapplication or misinterpretation of this Agreement, the grievance and arbitration procedure contained in this Article shall be the sole and exclusive remedy available to employees, and the parties hereto as this procedure is intended to supersede all conflicting provisions of the Ohio Revised Code regarding any and all matters subject to the grievance procedures of this Contract or otherwise made subject to this Agreement. With respect to grievances involving disciplinary suspensions, demotions or dismissals the election of remedies, as set forth above, shall be mutually exclusive. Choice of binding arbitration shall thereafter preclude appeal to Civil Service or to Court. Appeal to Civil Service shall preclude access to binding arbitration. With respect to cases of suspension, demotion and discharge, the arbitrator shall decide:
Mandatory Binding Arbitration The Parties agree to submit to binding arbitration any claims that they may have against each other, of any nature whatsoever, other than those prohibited by law, pursuant to the New Mexico Uniform Arbitration Act, and hereby waive any rights to file suit in a court of law on any such claims.
Jurisdictional Disputes 17.01 A xxxx-up meeting will be held with each Contractor not later than the commencement of the Contractor's work on all projects and no assignments shall be made before this xxxx- up. Xxxx-up assignments shall also apply to all sub-contractors. If a jurisdictional dispute arises once the work has commenced, assignments will be made in accordance with procedures, rules and regulations of the National Joint Board Building Trades Department, A.F.L. & C.I.O. The work assignment shall not be completed until a meeting on site has been convened with all Parties involved and until a subsequent meeting (not later than twenty-four (24) hours) has taken place, at which the Contractor shall present the work assignment on paper to all Parties. 17.02 In the event such jurisdictional dispute cannot be settled on a Local basis by the Unions involved, such dispute shall be submitted to the International Unions involved for settlement without permitting it to interfere in any way with the progress of the work at any time. In the event the dispute is not settled by the International Unions involved, it shall then be submitted to the National Joint Board for resolution. It is understood and agreed, however, that if the dispute causes any delay in the progress of the work or gives rise to an apprehended delay, any of the Parties hereto may apply to the Labour Relations Board (Nova Scotia) Construction Panel for an Interim Order under Section 50 of the Trade Union Act, Chapter 311, R.S.N.S. 1967, amended.
Binding Arbitration If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website xxx.xxx.xxx. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. [If such costs are determined to by the arbitrator to be excessive, we will pay all arbitration fees and expenses.] The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in [name of county] County, [name of state]. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in [name of county] County, [name of state], and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms and Conditions. In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Site be commenced more than years after the cause of action arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
