The applicant sought leave to appeal an arbitrator's award that dismissed its claim for $19.7 million and allowed the respondent's counterclaim for $1,048,351.93 arising from a terminated construction contract.
The applicant alleged the arbitrator made 524 categorical errors of law in interpreting the contract.
The court dismissed the application, finding that the alleged errors were questions of mixed fact and law regarding the arbitrator's use of the factual matrix and subsequent conduct to determine if the contract was breached, and that the applicant failed to identify any extricable errors of pure law.
