N.D. Cent. Code § 32-29.3-18: Judicial enforcement of preaward ruling by arbitrator

If an arbitrator makes a preaward ruling in favor of a party to the arbitration proceeding, the party may request the arbitrator to incorporate the ruling into an award under section 32-29.3-19. A prevailing party may make a motion to the court for an expedited order to confirm the award under section 32-29.3-22, in which case the court shall summarily decide the motion. The court shall issue an order to confirm the award unless the court vacates, modifies, or corrects the award under section 32-29.3-23 or 32-29.3-24.
