LMAR 8.1
                    STIPULATIONS - EFFECT ON RELIEF GRANTED


    If a case not otherwise subject to mandatory arbitration is transferred to
arbitration by stipulation, the arbitrator may grant any relief which could
have been granted if the case were determined by a judge.  Stipulated
arbitrations are not governed by these rules unless expressly agreed to by the
parties.  Compensation of arbitrators performing stipulated arbitrations is the
responsibility of the parties.
