Background

On March 12, 2020, the petitioners filed a petition asking the court to confirm an arbitration award. The opinion states that proceedings to confirm an arbitration award are treated like a motion for summary judgment, meaning the court considers the parties’ submitted materials to decide whether the award should be confirmed.

Order

The court ordered the petitioners to file and serve any additional materials supporting the petition by March 26, 2020. The respondent’s opposition, if any, was due April 9, 2020, and the petitioners’ reply, if any, was due April 16, 2020.

The petitioners also had to serve the petition, all supporting papers, and the order on the respondent electronically and by overnight mail by March 26, 2020. They had to file an affidavit confirming service by March 27, 2020.

Disposition

Judge Jesse M. Furman issued a scheduling and service order. The opinion does not state that the court confirmed or rejected the arbitration award, and it does not resolve the petition’s merits.
