  1. Hansen & Hansen Enterprises, Inc. v. SCSJ Enterprises, Inc.

    299 Ga. App. 469 (Ga. Ct. App. 2009)   Cited 8 times
    Holding that the trial court erred in vacating an arbitration award on the basis of manifest disregard of the law because the award showed that the arbitrator knew the applicable Georgia law and applied it

    Such a claim amounts to a mistake of fact not addressed in the statutory grounds. See Burden v. Suggs, 271 Ga. App. 688, 691 (2) ( 610 SE2d 640) (2005). "The authority of an arbitrator gives [him] the inherent power to fashion a remedy as long as the award draws its essence from the contract or statute."
