Abstract

This article describes a random study of 351 public sector arbitration awards decided between January 1, 1990 and July 1, 1993, and reported to the American Arbitration Association. The study reviews the use of attorneys as advocates during arbitration proceedings. It explores whether a consistent pattern exist in the use of attorneys in the public employer categories as defined by the American Arbitration Association and whether a pattern exists in the use of attorneys in contract interpretation and disciplinary case issues before arbitrators.
