Holmes, et al. v. Gray, et al. PETITION TO CONFIRM ARBITRATION AWARD (CCP § 1285) TENTATIVE RULING: Petitioners Robert K. Holmes and Holmes & Holmes’ Petition to Confirm Arbitration Award is DISMISSED. ANALYSIS: Petitioners Robert K. Holmes and Holmes & Holmes
(“Petitioners”) filed the instant Petition to Confirm Arbitration Award against
Daniel Gray (“Respondent”) on November 17, 2020. The Petition seeks to confirm an arbitration award issued on January 20, 2020 by arbitrator
Stephen Spiegel of Mediation & Arbitration Services, in Case No.
M-103-19-AC, requiring Respondent to pay Petitioners $6,699.52, plus ten (10)
percent interest per annum from the 30th day after the date of the Award.
(Pet., Attachment 6(c).) The Court on its own
motion takes judicial notice of the filings in Holmes, et al. v. Gray, et al., LASC Case No. 20STCP00990, in which Petitioners sought confirmation of
the same arbitration award against the same Respondent. (LASC Case No.
20STCP00990, Pet., Attachment 6(c).) The petition in LASC Case No. 20STCP00990
was denied on October 14, 2020. (LASC Case No. 20STCP00990, Minute Order,
10/14/20, p. 2.) Under Code of Civil
Procedure section 1294, subdivision (b), an order dismissing a petition to confirm
an arbitration award, which is the equivalent of a denial of the petition, is thereafter
appealable. (Code Civ. Proc., § 1294, subd. (b); Cinel v. Christopher
(2012) 203 Cal.App.4th 759, 765.) Petitioner had no legal basis to file another
action seeking the same relief sought in LASC Case No. 20STCP00990. Petitioner’s
recourse was to appeal the result in LASC Case No. 20STCP00990. Petitioners Robert K. Holmes and Holmes & Holmes’ Petition to Confirm Arbitration Award is DISMISSED.
