Description
¶1 Rule 7(a) of the Uniform Rules of Procedure for Arbitration ("Uniform Rules") limits appeals from compulsory arbitration to parties who have appeared and participated in the arbitration proceedings. Pursuant to that rule, the superior court dismissed Kathleen Whitaker's appeal to the superior court from an arbitration award in favor of Patricia Graf. Whitaker now asserts on appeal to this court that Uniform Rule 7(a) impermissibly abridges the statutory right to appeal from arbitration and the constitutional right to trial by jury. We find the rule compatible with both the statute and the constitution, but remand for reconsideration of its application in this case.
