the Hall of Justice Proposed Amendments The revisions also clarify that a complaint to stay or compel arbitration, or to vacate, modify, or correct an award must first be filed, and then a motion, consistent with the spirit of MCR 3.602(B)(1), must be filed. They also set timing deadlines consistent with the time frame allowed under the federal arbitration act, 9 USC 1 et seq., by requiring that a motion to vacate, modify, or correct an award be filed within 91 days. However, for domestic relations cases, and for motions that claim an award is based on corruption, fraud, or other undue means, the current 21-day filing period applies for motions to vacate an arbitration award.
