03 — How parties name him
By mutual consent, not by appointment.
Daniel B. Garrie is not on the AAA National Roster of Arbitrators. Under the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules, parties are not confined to that roster: by mutual consent they may designate any qualified neutral, and the AAA administers the matter under its Rules, subject to its standard disclosure and confirmation process. The clause and stipulation page carries ready-to-adapt language for both a pending matter and a new agreement.
