1Opinion of the Court

MESKILL, Circuit Judge:

The issue presented on appeal is whether the district court properly vacated an arbitration award. Plaintiff Willemijn Houdstermaatschappij, BV (Willemijn) appeals from an order of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Owen, /., vacating Wiilemijn’s arbitration award and denying Willemijn’s petition to confirm the award. The district court found that the arbitrators manifestly disregarded the law. We disagree and accordingly vacate the order of the district court and remand the ease with directions to confirm the award.
