IL. PETITION TO CORRECT ARBITRATION AWARD
Courts may correct an arbitration award under the following circumstances:
(a) There was an evident miscalculation of figures or an evident mistake in the
description of any person, thing or property referred to in the award:
(b) The arbitrators exceeded their powers but the award may be corrected without
affecting the merits of the decision upon the controversy submitted; or
(c) The award is imperfect in a matter of form, not affecting the merits of the
controversy.
(Code Civ. Proc., § 1286.6, subd. (a), (b), (c).)
California public policy supports the use of private arbitration to resolve disputes.
To promote this alternative means of dispute resolution, the law minimizes judicial
intervention in the proceedings, in part, by the doctrine of arbitral finality. Thus,
the general rule is that ‘an arbitrator's decision cannot be reviewed for errors of fact
or law. Both because it vindicates the intentions of the parties that the award be
final, and because an arbitrator is not ordinarily constrained to decide according to
