Dept. of Transportation v. White Oak Corp.

Summary

The court reversed the Appellate Court and held that the arbitration panel had authority to decide White Oak's liquidated-damages claim. The prior injunction judgment did not limit the Bridgeport arbitration to a single wrongful-termination claim, and White Oak's notice and demand sufficiently described its liquidated-damages claim under § 4-61. The court therefore directed the Appellate Court to affirm the trial court's confirmation of the arbitration award.
