The judge held there was no evidence of arbitrator misconduct: the arbitrator was entitled to determine jurisdiction (the pleadings raised the larger sum), the letter did not show bias, the refusal to admit an architect's report was a proper exercise of discretion in a document-based arbitration, and the closure of submissions was justified; the application is dismissed and costs are awarded to the respondent.
