Syllabus

The trial court erred in denying the university's motion to vacate an arbitrator's award. The union's demand for arbitration was made outside of the 30-day period allowed by the parties' collective bargaining agreement, and the arbitrator accordingly lacked jurisdiction to proceed with arbitration. Even if the Chapter had established jurisdiction, the arbitrator improperly substituted his judgment for that of the university where the university's judgment and actions did not violate the provisions of the collective bargaining agreement. Judgment reversed arbitration award vacated.
