Is there a way to expedite the hearing of securities arbitration claims?

Yes, there is a way to expedite the hearing of securities arbitration claims in Texas. The expedited hearing process is known as a “Summary Disposition” hearing. This type of hearing is designed to be quicker and more efficient than the traditional full hearing process. The Summary Disposition hearing process begins by the arbitrator issuing an Order that the claimant or respondent file a motion for Summary Disposition. The motion must include an affidavit and other documents and must explain why the party believes a full hearing is unnecessary. After the motion is filed, the arbitrator will review the documents and determine whether the motion should be granted. If the motion is granted, briefs will be submitted and the arbitrator will make a decision within 30 days. Though the Summary Disposition hearing process is designed to be quicker than a full hearing process, it is still important to understand the process and prepare your arguments in the same way. The arbitrator will make their decision based on the evidence presented to him or her, so you want to make sure that you are well prepared and provide a clear picture of your argument. Your presentation should be concise and focused on the key points and evidence in your claim. Overall, the Summary Disposition hearing process provides a way for claimants and respondents to expedite their securities arbitration claim in Texas. It is important to understand the process and prepare for it, however, to ensure that your case is heard in the most efficient way possible.
