The party filing such a motion shall be entitled to all costs incurred for such a filing, including all filing, processing, and service expenses; and attorney’s fees. Although the initial costs of mediation and arbitration before Judicate West shall be shared by the parties equally (50/50), the arbitrator shall thereafter award costs and attorney’s fees to the prevailing party. The arbitrator upon reaching a final award shall explain the reasons for said decision. Should Judicate West or its Sana Ana, CA venue be unavailable for any reason whatsoever, the parties hereby agree to the following in this order: selecting another Judicate West venue which is closest to POSTRON; using JAMS for mediation and arbitration in a venue closest to POSTRON; using AAA for mediation and arbitration in a venue closest to POSTRON; and using another alternate dispute provider for mediation and arbitration in a venue closest to POSTRON. Any final determination by binding arbitration may be enforced by a Court having competent jurisdiction.
