KEMPF v. PURYEAR

No. 15557-9-III.

942 P.2d 375 (1997)

87 Wash.App. 390

Janice M. KEMPF, Appellant, v. Nick PURYEAR, Respondent.

Court of Appeals of Washington, Division 3, Panel Nine.

As Amended September 23, 1997.

Reconsideration Denied October 22, 1997.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

David W. Hubert, Spokane, for Appellant.

Neil E. Humphries, Humphries, Patterson & Lewis, Spokane, for Respondent.


SWEENEY, Chief Judge.

Janice M. Kempf appeals from an order setting aside an arbitration award in her favor. The question presented is whether the arbitrators' conduct—which included ex parte contact with the parties and failure to swear witnesses—rises to the level of "other misbehavior, by which the rights of any party have been prejudiced." RCW 7.04.160(3). We conclude that it does not and reverse the trial court's order.
