  • The increasing use of a “Decision on the Merits” in lieu of a so-called “Interim Award” to avoid the little known (but serious) problems of using “Interim Awards,” even though the AAA Rules allow it.
  • The practical and legal problems with seeking, granting, or enforcing R-39 Emergency Measures of Protection (e.g., injunctions, receivers, provisional remedies, etc.) in arbitration.
  • The problems (and solutions) relating to arbitration “Discovery” Subpoenas to Third Persons.
