(a) The award shall be in writing and signed by the arbitrators joining in the award. The arbitrators shall deliver a copy to each party personally or by registered or certified mail or as provided in the agreement.

Annotations
Pursuant to subsection (a) of this section, an arbitration award signed by only one of three arbitrators required to sign the award was defective in form but not in substance, and thus the parties were permitted to make timely application to modify or correct the award under subsection (a)(3) of section 25-2614. Hartman v. City of Grand Island, 265 Neb. 433, 657 N.W.2d 641 (2003).
The appellant waived an objection under this section where there was nothing in the record to support a conclusion that he notified the arbitrators of his objection prior to the delivery of the award. Damrow v. Murdoch, 15 Neb. App. 920, 739 N.W.2d 229 (2007).
