Case files or surPmary data, such as insurer claim reports, were examined for approximately 300 closed arbitration cases believed to ~epresent the majority of cases closed nationally between 1970 and 1979. The large maiority of cases are from the California Hospital and Medical .~ssociation's arbitration program, flat included are data from cases resolved in arbitration under HMO or other prepaid group plan contracts. The arbitration data base v~as designed to yield informatlon. separately by claim-producing incident, by claim, by defendent or by forum. For comparative analyses, a litigation sample of 500 cases was obtained from :the National Association of Insurance Con~nissioners' (r~AIC) national survey representing insured r~d~cal malpractice claims closed between 1975 and 1978. The data base and ancil- la~'y materials, including the computer program, are available directly fr~ the American Arbitration Association. The Final Report presents a descriptive analysis of 205 cases closed in the arbitration forum; and, a comparative analysis of.a sample of arbitration and court cases occurring ir southern California. Because the information is limited in type and volu~e, and the comparison study is restricted to one area and program, this work is described as a pilot or ',~troductory effort. The findings should be considered indicative rather than definitive, a~,- cannot be generalized for other areas or even other arbitration systems. Given these cav(,: :s the major findings include: (I) arbitration appeared to be the more efficient method, ~s measured in terms of time for report and processing; (2) the two forums appear to be ~qu valent with regard to frequency and amount of indemnity award; (3) there was no evidence ~,~at arbitration produces compromise or favors one side over the other; (4) cases in arbitration were more likely to be adjudicated on the merits. 11.

    COLORADO DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION STANDARD SPECIFICATION SECTION 105 DISPUTE REVIEW BOARD Brannan Sand and Gravel Co. v. Colorado Department of Transportation DRB FINAL RESOLUTION BACKGROUND Colorado Project No. STA 0404-044 15821R, “Removing Asphalt Mat on West Colfax Avenue and Replacing with a new Hot Mix Asphalt Overlay”, was awarded to Brannan Sand and Gravel Company on August 11, 2008, for $1,089,047.93. The contract incorporated all Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) Standard Specifications and Project Special Conditions, including, Standard Specification 109.06: Standard Specification 109.06 Partial Payments. CDOT will make partial payments to the Contractor once each month as the work progresses, when the Contractor is performing satisfactorily under the Contract. Payments will be based upon progress estimates prepared by the Engineer, of the value of work performed, materials placed in accordance with the Contract, and the value of the materials on hand in accordance with the Contract. Revision of Section 109. In September 2006, CDOT, CCA (Colorado Contractors Associations), and CAPA (Colorado Asphalt Pavement Association) formed a joint Task Force at the request of CAPA to evaluate the need for an asphalt cement cost adjustment specification that would be similar to the Fuel Cost Adjustment that was currently being used by CDOT. The result of the Task Force effort was the revision of Standard Specification 109.06 to include the Asphalt Cement Cost Adjustments Subsection. Subsection 109.06, Revision of Section 109, “Asphalt Cement Cost Adjustment When Asphalt Cement is Included in the Bid Price for HMA”, states: _____________________________________________________________ DRB Final Resolution Brannan Sand & Gravel v.

The first is its high quality. The reader holds in his or her hands an exceptionally strong collection addressing some of the most fundamental issues of church-state relations. One reason for this, perhaps, was the timeliness of the Symposium: coming as it did so soon after the oral arguments in the Supreme Court case of Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church & School v. EEOC,1 its participants were closely focused on some sharp divisions within the field of law and religion, and the resulting papers show it. The second is the outcome of the Symposium, which I can only characterize as a tie.
