New Jersey § 2a:23b-8

§ 2a:23b-8.

a. Before an arbitrator is appointed and is authorized and able to act, the court,

in such summary action upon application of a party to an arbitration proceeding and

for good cause shown, may enter an order for provisional remedies to protect the effectiveness

of the arbitration proceeding to the same extent and pursuant to the same conditions

as if the controversy were the subject of a civil action. b. After an arbitrator is appointed and is authorized and able to act: (1) the arbitrator may issue orders for provisional remedies, including interim awards,

as the arbitrator finds necessary to protect the effectiveness of the arbitration

proceeding and to promote the fair and expeditious resolution of the controversy,

to the same extent and pursuant to the same conditions as if the controversy were

the subject of a civil action; and (2) a party to an arbitration proceeding may move the court for a provisional remedy

only if the matter is urgent and the arbitrator is not able to act timely or the arbitrator

cannot provide an adequate remedy. c. A party does not waive a right of arbitration by making an application pursuant

to subsection a. or b. of this section.
