Common use of Modification to NAM/JAMS Rules Clause in Contracts

Modification to NAM/JAMS Rules. The arbitrator shall apply the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (except for Rule 23) and the Federal Rules of Evidence as interpreted in the jurisdiction where the arbitration is held. Also there shall be one arbitrator for the matter up and through submission and determination of a motion for summary judgment. If a summary judgment is made, the arbitrator must render a written and detailed opinion on that motion within sixty (60) calendar days of submission of all supporting and opposition papers. If the summary judgment is in any part denied the case shall proceed to hearing before another arbitrator, who did not hear the summary judgment motion.

If no summary judgment is filed then no new arbitrator will be selected to hear the matter, as the original arbitrator will retain jurisdiction.
