P0771 If arbitration falls within the reasonable expectations of the contracting parties and is not unduly oppressive, the arbitration agreement is not substantively unconscionable; claims under the False Claims Act are arbitrable; it generally is within an arbitrator's power to award statutory civil penalties as a form of compensation; arbitration agreements made under the Public Contract Code may permit a court to vacate an award that is not supported by substantial evidence or decided in accordance with law; an arbitrator's award becomes a contractual obligation when it becomes final, which could result in the award of prejudgment interest.CitationCOUNTY OF SOLANO v LIONSGATE (False Claims Arbitration) 126 CA4 741 [See: GovC 12650 etseq; CivC 3287; CCP 1287.6, 1296; PubContC 10240.12; Cruz v PacifiCare 30 C4 303, P/AT 7/03; Broughton v Cigna 21 C4 1066, T/AT 1/00; Advanced Micro Devices v Intel 9 C4 362, Crowell v Downey 95 CA4 730, P/AT 3/02]
