Centerpoint Energy Res. Corp. v. Gas Workers Union

Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

COLLOTON, Circuit Judge.

Gas Workers Union, Local No. 340 appeals the district court's order vacating an arbitration award. The award reinstated a union member to his former position without back pay after he was discharged by the company. Because the arbitrator was at least arguably construing the contract between the parties in making the award, the arbitrator's decision should not have been vacated, and we therefore reverse the judgment of the district court.
