Background

The petitioners filed a petition on November 12, 2024, asking the court to confirm an arbitration award. The opinion states that proceedings to confirm an arbitration award are treated as similar to a motion for summary judgment, meaning the court generally considers the parties’ written submissions and supporting materials.

Deadlines and Service

The court ordered the petitioners to file and serve any additional materials supporting the petition by December 4, 2024. Budd Woodwork Incorporated’s opposition, if any, was due January 3, 2025. The petitioners’ reply, if any, was due January 17, 2025.

The petitioners also had to serve the petition, all supporting papers, and the order on Budd Woodwork Incorporated electronically and by overnight mail no later than December 4, 2024. They had to file an affidavit confirming that service by December 5, 2024.

Ruling

Judge John P. Cronan issued a scheduling and service order. The opinion did not rule on whether the arbitration award should be confirmed, and it did not state the amount or subject of the award.
