Arbitration: Arbitration Claimant Failing To Raise Fee Entitlement Basis As A Ground For Fee Award Waived The Argument In Later Arbitration Confirmation Proceedings

This Was No Ground To Correct The Award.

            In Hollander v. Tennenbaum Capital Partners, LLC, Case No. B314018 (2d Dist., Div. 1 Nov. 21, 2022) (unpublished), the appellate court rejected an arbitration claimant’s argument that Labor Code fees were unwaivable when the claimant did not articulate that ground as a basis for the fee award before the arbitrator.  It was too late to raise in superior court confirmation proceedings.
