Ryan v. Kontrick

Appellate Court of Illinois

Decided March 26, 1999No. 1-97-0144PublishedCited by 10 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Zwick

Petitioner, Robert A. Ryan, M.D., sought confirmation of an arbitrator’s award in a contract dispute with respondent, Andrew J. Kontrick, M.D. The circuit court confirmed the arbitrator’s award in its entirety and ordered that Kontrick pay prejudgment interest on the award. On appeal, respondent Kontrick challenges the rulings of the circuit court, contending (1) the arbitrator exceeded his authority in awarding punitive damages, (2) the arbitrator ignored Illinois law in awarding attorney fees without supporting evidence, and (3) the circuit court erred in awárding prejudgment interest.
