Discovery in employment arbitration
Article Abstract:
Discovery rights should be retained in arbitration cases involving employee termination. Terminated employees do not often have the resources that union members may have in an arbitrable grievance. Choosing arbitration instead of litigation should not negate a party's right to due process. A time limit should be placed on discovery to insure efficiency.
