CARLTON SNOW
This issue of late arbitration awards is analyzed through the <em>Huntington Alloys</em> case, a Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals decision holding an arbitation award to be void because the arbitrator exceeded the time limits agreed on by the parties. Courts customarily have refused to vacate late awards for lateness. The article describes various theories advanced by courts to support this trend and scrutinizes the <em>Huntington Alloys</em> decision in light of those theories. The article concludes with a brief analysis of implications of the decision.
