How do I challenge an arbitration award?

In Oregon, challenging an arbitration award is done through a court system. To challenge the award, you must first file a motion to vacate or modify the award. This motion must be filed within 90 days of the award being issued. When filing the motion, you must provide the court with a clear argument as to why you believe the award should be vacated or modified. You must also provide evidence to support your argument. This can include documents, statements, records, or any other supportive information. Additionally, you should include any grounds for challenging the award. These grounds include fraud, bias, procedural error, corruption, or any other irrational or illegal behavior. Once you’ve filed the motion, a court hearing will be conducted to allow you to present your argument. The court will ultimately make a decision based on the evidence and argument you have provided. If the court agrees that the arbitration award should be vacated or modified, the court will make a ruling and the award will be adjusted accordingly. Keep in mind that challenging an arbitration award is a complex process and it is best to seek legal advice before beginning the process.
