Before KILKENNY and CHOY, Circuit Judges, and EAST, District Judge.


CHOY, Circuit Judge:

This appeal is from an order of the district court confirming an arbitration award. We hold that it was proper for the district court to exercise jurisdiction in this matter and to enforce the award. Although the district court should not have addressed the defense of contractual illegality, it made clear that the issue did not affect the result in the current proceeding. We therefore affirm.
