Practice point: The arbitrator's errors of fact or law are insufficient to vacate the award.
Student note: CPLR 7511 provides four grounds for vacating an award, one of which is the exceeding of the arbitrator's power. This requires a showing that the award violates a strong public policy, is irrational, or clearly exceeds a specifically enumerated limitation on the arbitrator's power.
