Synopsis By: Dissen
Proceeding Author:
Benjamin C. Roberts
 

An examination of findings and recommendations made by state and federal courts since 1955 in matters of alleged misconduct by labor arbitrators.

Roberts largely confines his review to labor arbitration and identifies and discusses fifteen (15) problem areas.
