LIBERTY MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY v. DEREK REID

(2400)Appellate Court of Connecticut

TESTO, DUPONT and BORDEN, Js.

Argued February 10, 1984

Decision released March 20, 1984

Application to confirm an arbitration award, brought to the Superior Court in the judicial district of Fairfield at Bridgeport, where the court, Driscoll, J., rendered judgment granting the application, from which the defendant appealed. No error.

Laurence V. Parnoff with whom, on the brief, was F. J. Polesak, Jr., for the appellant (defendant).

Michael A. Dowling, with whom, on the brief, was Edward J. Holahan, Jr., for the appellee (plaintiff).

PER CURIAM.

This is a case involving an arbitration award made pursuant to an unrestricted submission. It is clear that the award conforms to the submission. Therefore any error of law claimed to have been committed by the arbitrator is not reviewable by the court.[1]
American Motorists Ins. Co. v. Brookman, 1 Conn. App. 219, 470 A.2d 253 (1984); Trumbull v. Trumbull Police Local 1745, 1 Conn. App. 207, 470 A.2d 1219 (1984).

We disagree with the defendant’s claim that the submission was restricted.

There is no error.
