ARTICLE:

CEB DailyNews has published my article, “Arbitrator reversed for basing credibility on use of interpreter.” The article is about *FCM Invs. v. Grove Pham, LLC* (D4d1 Oct. 17, 2023) No. D080801.

The arbitrator had ruled against the appellant based on a credibility determination, noting that “Mrs. Pham's use of an interpreter appeared to the Arbitrator to be a ploy to appear less sophisticated than she really is. She has been in the country for decades, has engaged in sophisticated business transactions and has herself functioned as an interpreter.”
