Synopsis By: Lurie - Proceeding Author: Joseph Grodin

Professor Grodin examines four U.S. Supreme Court decisions. The first deals with setting aside a labor arbitrator’s award that conflicts with “public policy”; the second with judicial authority to overrule a labor arbitrator’s finding of fact; the third with the authority of a court, under the Federal Arbitration Act, to hear an appeal, including a challenge to arbitration; and the fourth, the Circuit City case.
