Natare Corp. v. D.S.I., Duraplastec Systems, Inc.

SULLIVAN, Justice.

Natare Corporation filed this lawsuit, contending that an arbitrator had wrongly denied it attorney fees to which it was entitled. Indiana law specifies limited bases upon which an arbitrator's award may be challenged in a trial court. We agree with the trial court that neither of the bases advanced by Natare is available to it here: the arbitrator did not exceed his authority in denying Natare attorney fees, nor did he make his decision to deny Na-tare attorney fees before the attorney fee issue was presented to him.
