RYAN, J.
This case requires us to determine whether an arbitrator's award in a dispute between the parties to a construction contract is admissible evidence in a subsequent suit by the owner against the contractor's surety, when the surety had no notice of, nor opportunity to participate in, the arbitration proceedings.
The Court of Appeals held that the arbitrator's award was admissible as prima facie evidence.
