Summary
Appeal from United States District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis Original Case: 0:15-cv-03320 - ... We conclude that the removal of arbitrators is similarly protected by arbitral immunity because it is just as much a part of the arbitration process as the appointment of arbitrators. Because Owens' claims are barred by arbitral immunity, the district court did not err in dismissing his action. For these reasons we affirm the judgment of the district court.
