Code of Ethics for Arbitrators in Commercial Disputes

Adopted by the Supreme Court of Alabama, March 4, 2005.

On March 4, 2005, the Supreme Court of Alabama adopted the American Bar Association-American Arbitration Association 2004 Code of Ethics for Arbitrators in Commercial Disputes (the Code). An important aspect of the Code is that it requires arbitrators to disclose conflicts of interests and also conduct impartial hearings. The Code was originally drafted as an ethical guideline for arbitrators and others involved in alternative dispute resolution. The 2004 revisions kept much of the 1977 version while updating it in significant respects to keep it in line with modern practice. A major area of difference concerns party-appointed arbitrators.
