Supreme Court of Rhode Island

West Warwick Housing Authority v. Ri Council 94, Afscme, Afl-Cio

July 1, 2022

Summary

The Supreme Court of Rhode Island affirmed the Superior Court’s denial of West Warwick Housing Authority’s motion to vacate an arbitration award, holding that the trial justice correctly found the collective bargaining agreement enforceable and the grievance arbitrable. The Court also declined to address the union’s request for a remand on attorneys’ fees, leaving that issue for the lower court.
