observing that policies favoring obligation to arbitrate and conclusiveness of arbitration might not apply where obligation to arbitrate was infected by fraud, overreaching, undue pressure, or similar conduct on a representative union’s part

How later courts described this case

  • observing that policies favoring obligation to arbitrate and conclusiveness of arbitration might not apply where obligation to arbitrate was infected by fraud, overreaching, undue pressure, or similar conduct on a representative union’s part
  • holding that limited grounds on which judicial review of arbitration decisions is available does not bar giving such decisions preclusive effect
  • Article I, section 10, notwithstanding, parties are free to negotiate agreements that have the effect of conferring immunity on one of them from action by the other — to hold otherwise would invalidate many arbitration agreements
  • ‘“The court will enter judgment upon [an arbitration award], but not if... it appears that the arbitrators intended to follow the law and then based the award on a clear misapprehension concerning the law.” (citation omitted)
