In general, arbitration decisions are private records, and the arbitrator is constrained in releasing them. Some decisions in the public sector are protected as personnel matters, while other decisions are treated as public records.
Arbitration sessions are open to the public as are most court proceedings. Mediations, however, are private and confidential and are not open to the public. If an arbitration hearing is converted to mediation with the consent of the parties, only the litigants will be allowed to remain in the hearing room.
If arbitration is not filed within 60 calendar days of the dismissal/discontinuance, the expiration of the statute of limitations may be asserted as an affirmative defense/exclusion.
