Arbitration is particularly useful where the subject matter is highly technical, or where the parties seek greater confidentiality than in an open court.

Settlement by agreement is the cheapest option and gives you the most control. Both mediation and arbitration are expensive, and arbitration is usually binding, so the ultimate decision is out of your control.
In simple terms, arbitration is the out-of-court resolution of a disagreement between two commercial parties decided by an impartial third party, the arbitrator.
These cases range from breach of contract or licensing agreements, business torts, and franchise to construction and infrastructure disputes in companies from start-ups to the Fortune 500 in a variety of industries.
The arbitrator listens to both sides, looks at the evidence you've sent in and decides what the outcome should be. In some cases, the arbitrator may choose to have several meetings with you both. When the arbitrator makes a decision, this is called an award and it's legally binding.
Arbitration is less formal than going to court, and you may represent yourself. However, you should keep in mind that arbitration is a legal proceeding that results in an award that is generally final and binding. Because your legal rights are involved, you may choose to consult with and be represented by an attorney.
An order to show cause (O.S.C.), is a court order or the demand of a judge requiring a party to justify or explain why the court should or should not grant a motion or a relief. For example, if a party requests a restraining order from a judge, the judge may need more information.
On the next court date, there will be a hearing to determine if you have indeed violated a previous written order of the court. If you are unable to show the Court that you have not violated the Order, then you will most likely be held in Contempt of Court.
MOTIONS/ORDERS TO SHOW CAUSE The Notice of Motion, affirmations, affidavits and exhibits must be filed as SEPARATE documents. A proposed Order To Show Cause is filed in the same manner as a Notice of Motion using document type ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE (PROPOSED) in place of the Notice of Motion.
