1. Under the Federal Arbitration Act, ("FAA"), 9 U.S.C. § 10(a)(4), does an arbitrator "exceed[] [his] powers" by applying the fugitive disentitlement doctrine to disentitle a party who is a fugitive from a federal court proceeding, given the doctrine is an inherent power possessed only by courts?

2. Under the FAA, if an arbitrator may permissibly apply the fugitive disentitlement doctrine to protect a federal court's proceedings, does his failure to comply with the limitations this Court set forth in Degen v. United States and other caselaw on the doctrine constitute a violation of 9 U.S.C. § 10(a)(3), (a)(4), or public policy?
