heard - Replacement arbitrator. A. Arbitrations shall be conducted in a fair and expeditious manner. The authority conferred on arbitrators includes, without limitation, the power to hold conferences and hearings with the parties, determine the admissibility, relevance, materiality and weight of any evidence, as well as ask questions of any witnesses during the proceedings. B. An arbitrator may decide a request for summary disposition of a claim or particular issue: 1. If all interested parties agree; or 2. On request of one party to the arbitration proceeding if that party gives notice to all other parties to the proceeding and the other parties have a reasonable opportunity to respond. C. If an arbitrator orders a hearing, the arbitrator shall set a time and place and give notice of the hearing not less than five (5) days before the hearing begins. Unless a party to the arbitration proceeding makes an objection to lack or insufficiency of notice not later than the beginning of the hearing, the party's appearance at the hearing waives the objection. On request of a party to the arbitration proceeding and for good cause shown, or upon the arbitrator's own initiative, the arbitrator may adjourn the hearing from time to time as necessary but may not postpone the hearing to a time later than that fixed by the agreement to arbitrate for making the award unless the parties to the arbitration proceeding consent to a later date. The arbitrator may hear and decide the controversy on the evidence produced although a party who was duly notified of the arbitration proceeding did not appear. The Commission, on request, may direct the arbitrator to conduct the hearing promptly and render a timely decision. D. At a hearing under subsection C of this section, a party to the arbitration proceeding has a right to be heard, to present evidence material to the controversy, and to cross-examine witnesses appearing at the hearing. E. If an arbitrator ceases or is unable to act during the arbitration proceeding, a replacement arbitrator shall be appointed according to the rules of the arbitration organization through which the arbitration is being conducted or, in the absence of such rules, by application to the Commission.
