N.Y. Civil Practice Law & Rules § 7507: Award; form; time; delivery

§ 7507. Award; form; time; delivery. Except as provided in section

7508, the award shall be in writing, signed and affirmed by the

arbitrator making it within the time fixed by the agreement, or, if the

time is not fixed, within such time as the court orders. The parties may

in writing extend the time either before or after its expiration. A

party waives the objection that an award was not made within the time

required unless he notifies the arbitrator in writing of his objection

prior to the delivery of the award to him. The arbitrator shall deliver

a copy of the award to each party in the manner provided in the

agreement, or, if no provision is so made, personally or by registered

or certified mail, return receipt requested.
