Supreme Court of Connecticut

LaFrance v. Lodmell

September 6, 2016

Summary

The court held that the statutory safeguards governing arbitration in dissolution proceedings apply to an arbitration agreement contained in a prenuptial agreement. It also upheld the trial court’s limitation of arbitration to disputes concerning the jointly owned residence, denial of the defendant’s late amendment request, and confirmation or modification of the arbitration awards because the submission was unrestricted and the awards conformed to it. No separate opinions were provided.
