J.3. Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be initiated through a mutually agreed onlegal arbitrator or through a appointed arbitrator, an established alternative dispute resolution provider that offers arbitration as set forth.  The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator.  The arbitration may be appurtenance based or non-appearance based.

J.4. Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration. If non-appearance based arbitration is elected, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration.  The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
