Arbitration
The noted Elizabethan English legal scholar Sir Edward Coke refers to an arbitration decision dating from the reign of Edward IV (which ended in 1483) however the first recorded judicial decision relating to arbitration was in England in 1610.
"George Washington put an arbitration clause in his will to resolve disputes among his heirs" and Abraham Lincoln "arbitrated a boundary dispute between two farmers" as a fledgling lawyer.
Arbitration, a traditional form of dispute resolution, is a binding or non binding procedure. It is often “administered” by a private organization that maintains lists of available arbitrators and provides rules under which the arbitration will be conducted. Such organizations can also manage the arbitration in whole or in part. Parties often select arbitrators on the basis of substantive expertise (usually a retired judge, attorney or subject matter specialist).
