Partner Dean Cordiano (Hartford) and associate Liz Leaderman (Hartford) wrote an article titled "Should Lawyers Be Sanctioned for Arbitration Misconduct?" that was published in the Connecticut Law Tribune on December 13, 2010. The article looks at the recent appellate court decision in Positive Software v. New Century Mortgage v. Ophelia F.
