Appeal of preliminary arbitration decision regarding third-party liability for expenses rejected as premature.
The appellants appealed an arbitrator's preliminary decision that deferred the determination of whether third-party representatives could be ordered to pay the insurer's arbitration expenses.
The Director's Delegate rejected the appeal as premature under Rule 51.2 of the Dispute Resolution Practice Code, finding that the arbitrator had not yet made a final order for the payment of expenses and that acknowledging the appeal would cause the parties to incur additional unrecoverable expenses.
