Mediator / Arbitrator
Judge Lindberg’s varied and accomplished career
path lends itself to the alternative dispute process. As
Judge of the Fourth Judicial District (1974-2000) he expanded
and implemented the alternative dispute resolution process.
As current chair of the USA Hockey, Inc.’s Legal Council
he is involved in oversight of contract relations as well
as reviewing the organization’s litigation. USA Hockey
Inc. is the National Governing Body for amateur ice hockey
in the United States. Also, under Judge Lindberg’s
leadership, the USA Hockey Legal Council adopted an arbitration
process for resolution of disputes between hockey individuals
and their organizations. As Legal Council Chair his involvement
is a direct oversight of that arbitration process.
Judge Lindberg is also the Chair of the USA Hockey, Inc.’s
Suspensions and Appeals Committee, having performed the same
role in the past for the Minnesota Amateur Hockey Association
and its district organizations. Judge Lindberg is currently
one of 200 arbitrators worldwide for the Court of Arbitration
for Sport which is the world organization designed to resolve
disputes between athletes and their sports federations and
also to determine Olympic or International competition eligibility.
Judge Lindberg is well versed in Sports law and the application
of the Ted Stevens Amateur Sports Act, 36 U.S.C.A., Chapter
220501 et. seq., and the U.S. Olympic Committee Bylaws as
they may apply to individuals and team amateur sports competition.
