[CLC-Discussion] County Realtors Association - Witness Subpoena Power

[Mark Young]

Did you client sign an agreement with an arbitration provision naming the
Realtors Association the arbitrator?  If your client agreed to binding
arbitration, then it should be enforceable.  

 

It is possible for an arbitrator to issue a subpoena to the parties, then
have the parties file an action with a court to have an enforceable witness
subpoena.

Power

 

One of my clients received a subpoena to appear as a witness at a hearing
for the local county Realtors Association.  What authority does the Realtors
Association have to issue witness subpoenas and are they enforceable.  Sorry
if this is a stupid question, but I have not seen this before and can find
no authority for this subpoena.
