While arbitration, including arbitration awards, normally remain confidential, they become public when a disputing party asks a court to confirm or vacate the arbitration award. As today's NYTimes reports, the big arbitration award against Fox "spilled into public view on Wednesday after the plaintiffs in the case filed a petition to confirm the arbitration award in Los Angeles Superior Court.
The arbitrator, Peter D. Lichtman, said that Fox pocketed tens of millions of dollars that should have gone to the 'Bones' team. He ordered Fox to pay the plaintiffs $50 million in damages and an additional $128 million in punitive damages. Fox is contesting the $128 million ruling."
