Rule 17CV1302 - List of ArbitratorsA. Upon receipt of a Praecipe, the Court Administrator shall nominate, from the list of attorneys, a board of potential arbitrators. The nominations shall be made in a rotational fashion from the members of the bar eligible for assignment, except where an attorney is excused by reason of incapacity, illness, or other disqualification. The Court Administrator shall further be responsible for apportioning assignments between members with more than five years' experience and those under five years. No more than one member of a family, firm, professional corporation or association shall be nominated to serve on one potential board.B. The Court Administrator shall nominate to the potential board 3 attorneys plus 1 additional attorney for each party of record. The list of attorneys nominated to the potential board shall be sent by the Court Administrator to each party or his or her attorney within 7 days of the receipt of the praecipe. Each party in the case or counsel for each party may strike off up to 1 attorney so named and return the list to the Court Administrator. If any or all parties strike the same name or fail to exercise their right to strike off any names from the potential board, the first 3 remaining names will make up the board of arbitration. In the event the Court Administrator cannot compile a list of sufficient names from the county in which the case arose, because of incapacity, illness or other disqualification, other attorneys whose practice is within the judicial district, regardless of county, may be included.C. As soon as the Court Administrator receives the returned list from the parties (or after 7 days if any list is not returned) each arbitrator shall be notified of his or her selection. A final board shall be sent to the attorneys of the parties.Amended effective 5/7/2024.
