NOTICE THAT ACTION IS
STAYED PENDING OUTCOME
OF MANDATORY FEE ARBITRATION
Bus. & Prof. Code '6201(c)

Section 6201(c) of the Business & Professions Code, pertaining to Mandatory Fee Arbitration, provides that:


"Upon filing and service of the request for arbitration, the action shall be stayed, without the necessity of court order, until the award of the arbitrators is issued or the arbitration is otherwise terminated and the time of the continuance of the stay shall not be part of the time limited for the commencement of the action. The stay may be vacated in whole or in part, after a hearing duly noticed by any party or the court, if the court finds that the matter, or any part of it, is not an appropriate one for arbitration under the provisions of this article. The action may thereafter proceed subject to the provisions of Section 6204."
