Is nondisclosure a valid basis for vacating an arbitration award?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Housen v. Ultimate Autoline, G055878 (Cal. App. 2019):

The issue is similarly forfeited on appeal since appellants did not raise their nondisclosure claim with the trial court as a reason to vacate the arbitration award. It is axiomatic that "[p]oints not raised in the trial court will not be considered on appeal." (Hepner v. Franchise Tax Bd. (1997) 52 Cal.App.4th 1475, 1486.)
