1102.00000 – CASE PROCESSING PROCEDURES; DEFERRAL TO ARBITRATION
1102.02000 – Post Arbitration; Repugnancy

Arbitrator’s decision finding language of the contract ambiguous and relying instead upon past practice was not “palpably wrong.” Where a claim of unilateral change is grounded in the contract, and there is no suggestion that the arbitrator failed to consider all of the evidence relevant to the alleged repudiation of the contractual provisions, the arbitrator’s award is not repugnant to EERA.
