Common use of Level III – Arbitration Clause in Contracts

Level III – Arbitration. If within a period of ten (10) days after receipt of the decision of the appropriate administrator, the grievant is not satisfied with the decision rendered at Level II, and wishes to appeal the grievance further, the Association may, after consultation with the grievant, submit on the appropriate District form to the superintendent, an appeal for Arbitration. It is expressly understood that the only matters which are subject to Arbitration are grievances as defined in Section 4.1.1 which were processed and handled in accordance with the limitations and procedures of this Article. Processing and discussing the merits of an alleged grievance by the District shall not constitute a waiver by the District of a defense that the dispute is not grievable.
