As discussed in Lexology, a plaintiff filed a suit in federal court against the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), the Arbitrator, and two employees of the AAA alleging that his due process rights were violated during the underlying arbitration proceedings. The court dismissed the action, concluding that the arbitral immunity set out in the Nevada’s Uniform Arbitration Act Section 38.229 protected the defendants against the suit.
The case is Slaughter v. American Arb. Assoc., No. 10-01437 (USDC D. Nev. June 2, 2011)
