Sec. 52-549y. Failure to appear. Judgment. Motion to open or set aside judgment. Dismissal of action. Payment of arbitration fee. (a) Where a party fails to
appear at the hearing, the arbitrator shall nonetheless proceed with the hearing and shall
make a decision, as may be just and proper under the facts and circumstances of the
action, which shall be entered as a judgment forthwith by the court. Such judgment may
not be opened or set aside unless a motion to open or set aside is filed within four
months succeeding the date on which it was rendered. If the court opens or sets aside
the judgment, it may resubmit the actions to the arbitrator. Any order opening or setting
aside the judgment may be upon condition that the moving party pay into the court an
amount not greater than the total fees then payable to the arbitrator for services in the case.
