Does an arbitration panel abused its discretion by denying a request for a postponement?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Wedbush Sec., Inc. v. Kelleher, A133204 (Cal. App. 2013):

In order to conclude an arbitration panel abused its discretion, we must determine whether the denial of a request for a postponement exceeded the bounds of reason. When two or more inferences can reasonably be deduced from the facts, we have no authority to substitute our decision for that of the arbitrators. (See Shamblin v. Brattain (1988) 44 Cal.3d 474, 478-479.)
