The Arbitration Judge, on the motion of any party filed and served within thirty (30) days after the arbitration award is served upon the parties by the Arbitration Administrator, shall have the power to award sanctions against any party or attorney for failure to participate in the arbitration hearing in a meaningful manner. Sanctions may include costs, expert fees and attorneys' fees reasonably incurred by all other parties for the arbitration hearing and in the prosecution of the motion for sanctions. These sanctions are independent of sanctions under Rule 26. The court may hold hearings as deemed appropriate. If the court determines that the motion was brought without good cause, it may award costs and attorney fees against the movant.
