At any time within the year following the award, unless the parties by mutual consent postpone the term in writing, any of the parties may request from the court an order confirming the award, and the court shall issue same unless the award is reversed, modified, or corrected, as provided in §§ 3223 and 3224 of this title. Written notice of the request shall be served on the opposing party or his counsel five (5) days in advance of the hearing thereof. The validity of an award which is otherwise valid shall not be affected by the fact that no motion has been filed for its confirmation.
