The Arbitrator made factual errors, in favor of the DOE, the decision was rendered outside of the normal deadline. The decision has prevented revelation of material facts through this doctrine of collateral estoppel. THE QUESTION PRESENTED IS If the Arbitrator's decision was rendered unlawfully will this limit the scope of the preclusive effect of Res Judicata and Collateral Estoppel per this Court's decision in Hall Street Assoc., LLC v.
