An appointing authority’s failure to act permits CADER to appoint an arbitrator despite pending court proceedings.
Arbitration — appointment of arbitrator — Section 11 ACA (party‑agreed procedure and failure of third party to perform) — CADER jurisdiction under Section 68; Arbitration vs courts — filing court proceedings does not automatically waive right to arbitrate (Section 5 ACA); Mutual obligation to participate in appointing arbitrator — prolonged silence amounts to failure to perform.
