Syndics of Segur v. Brown
1 Mart. 266
Syndics of Segur v. Brown
Opinion of the Court
An award must be final, because the arbitrators are the judges whom the parties have chosen for themselves. Not so, the report of referees, who are only appointed to ease the court of the labour of scrutinising long and intricate accounts. This is the principle of the Spanish law : no se han de nombrar para ningun articulo que consista in de hecho ; but, en caso que consista en cuenta o tassacion, ô pericia de persona ô arte. Cur. Phil. 89. n. 26.
Motion overruled.
