In a highly redacted petition, plaintiffs attorney Robert Cheeley is asking a Fulton County judge to void a confidential arbitration award with his former law firm, Butler Wooten & Peak, claiming the arbitrator evinced “manifest disregard of Georgia law and public policies.”

The 11-page filing, which includes several pages virtually covered with blacked-out type, apparently reflects Cheeley’s dissatisfaction with the arbitrator’s fee award involving the firm and three cases. One of the cases ended in a confidential high-low agreement before a jury awarded $15 million in damages last year, and two more include a wrongful death action against Toyota and a talcum-powder suit against Johnson & Johnson that are both pending in federal court.
