• noting that under the Arbitration Act “[n]ot only suits to enforce an arbitrator’s award, but also suits to compel arbitration and suits to stay court action pending arbitration, are now to be viewed as ‘favored’ actions.” (emphasis added) (quotation omitted)
• noting without deciding that, “[i]f the timeliness of a motion to vacate under the [Maryland Uniform Arbitration Act] is jurisdictional, parties cannot waive the matter, and indeed, an appellate court has the duty to notice the issue on its own initiative”
• “[T]he standard of review of arbitral awards is among the narrowest known to the law. [An appellate court] will not vacate an arbitration award simply because the court would not have made the same award as the arbitrator, or for mere legal error.” (citations omitted
