No. 77-1003.

552 F.2d 778 (1977)

Abdallah W. TAMARI et al., Plaintiffs-Appellants, v. William P. CONRAD, Jr., et al., Defendants-Appellees, and Bache Halsey Stuart, Inc. (formerly Bache & Co. Incorporated), Intervenor-Appellee.

United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided April 12, 1977.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Robert P. Howington, Jr., Donald C. Shine, Chicago, Ill., for plaintiffs-appellants.

N. A. Giambalvo, Gary M. Elden, Chicago, Ill., for defendants-appellees.

Before SWYGERT and WOOD, Circuit Judges, and CHRISTENSEN, Senior District Judge.


SWYGERT, Circuit Judge.

In this case plaintiffs are suing the eight members of the panel of arbitrators who were assigned the task of resolving a dispute between plaintiffs and Bache Halsey Stuart, Inc. Plaintiffs challenge the selection and composition of the panel of arbitrators. We hold that the district court correctly dismissed the action because arbitrators are immune from suit with respect to questions involving their authority to resolve a dispute.
