TOPICAL INDEXING:
Uninsured Motorist Benefits: Arbitration of Uninsured Motorist Claims
CASE SUMMARY:
Where, prior to the Supreme Court's decision in Bradley and Schigur (item number 312), an arbitration panel refused to reduce uninsured motorist coverage by the amount of PIP benefits paid, the Court of Appeals held that such action did not constitute a manifest disregard of the law justifying reversal of the arbitration panel. The Court noted that the correct resolution of this issue was clear at the time the arbitration panel acted; therefore its findings would not be disturbed.
