California Court of Appeal

Judgment confirming the arbitration award in favor of plaintiffs is affirmed over claim that Code of Civil Procedure section 1286.2(a)(6) compelled the trial court to vacate the arbitration award because the arbitrator failed to disclose his involvement in defendant's earlier case as a mediator, as required by section 1281.9(a).
