Sally Kellogg v. Middlesex Mutual Assurance Company

Summary

The court held that the trial court improperly vacated an unrestricted appraisal arbitration award concerning the amount of an insured loss. Under the governing narrow standards, disagreement with the panel's valuation was not procedural misconduct, and the panel's withholding of depreciation did not constitute manifest disregard of the law. The court reversed and remanded with direction to deny the application to vacate the award.
