Checklist
- Record when the party knew of the non-compliance and when it next took a step. Do not treat silence as waiver unless the section’s knowledge and delay elements are both there.
- The section covers a derogable provision of the Act or a requirement of the arbitration agreement. It does not, on its face, cover a mandatory provision.
- Do not invent a number of days for undue delay. The section does not state one.
