Lamarck believed that acquired traits would be passed on to the next generation.
Your arbitration hearing will result in a decision (arbitration award) issued by the arbitrator(s) within 30 days of the hearing. The arbitration award will be final and binding on both you and your attorney, unless either of you seeks a trial de novo within 30 days.
The pretrial order usually requires these procedures to be 6 to 8 months after the case is filed which is usually 30 to 60 days after the denial of a Summary Disposition Motion. If the ADR process is successful your case will continue to trial which is usually 30 to 60 days after the ADR process is completed. Many cases settle just before trial which usually takes place between 12 and 24 months after the suit is filed. Some judges set settlement conferences shortly before trial to encourage settlement as opposed to trial. If the case isn't settled before trial, the case will go to trial.
