"Thus, based on our holding in 'Mac Property,' we reject plaintiff's contention that respiratory particles—droplets and airborne aerosols—are physical substances that could have physically and tangibly altered its insured property," the opinion said.

"We are nevertheless satisfied these facts do not warrant deviation from the principles we have discussed, as our interpretation of the Rules confirms a party seeking a trial de novo should base their decision on the actual award filed with the court, not an arbitrator's oral representations prior to filing the written award," the opinion said. "As noted, a variety of circumstances could lead to differences between the two."

"I would just ask the court to take a step back, and look at what happened in this case, not as allegations, but what the jury heard and obviously agreed with," Peter G. Verniero of Sills Cummis & Gross said. "This is a semipublic institution that treated these doctors in a way that is unfair. That is clear from the jury's finding. And if this court were to reverse an unpublished opinion to somehow make a point on some technicality, it would be sending an awful message to all the parties in this case, to jurors, and to trial courts."
