Appointment of arbitrator
Official statutory text
A. Before an arbitrator is appointed and is authorized and able
to act, the court, upon application and motion of a party to an
arbitration proceeding and for good cause shown, may enter an order
for provisional remedies to protect the effectiveness of the
arbitration proceeding to the same extent and under the same
conditions as if the controversy were the subject of a civil action.
B. After an arbitrator is appointed and is authorized and able
to act:
1. The arbitrator may issue such further or revised orders for
provisional remedies, including interim awards, as the arbitrator
finds necessary to protect the effectiveness of the arbitration
proceeding and to promote the fair and expeditious resolution of the
controversy, to the same extent and under the same conditions as if
the controversy were the subject of a civil action; and
2. A party to an arbitration proceeding may move the court for
a provisional remedy only if the matter is urgent and the arbitrator
is not able to act timely or the arbitrator cannot provide an
adequate remedy.
C. A party does not waive a right of arbitration by making an
application and motion under subsection A or B of this section.
