Legal Question in Construction Law in Florida

We had to fire our lawyer who represented us in Arbitration. AAA
granted us Abeyance for a year till August 25,2012 ,with option to prolong this year long Abeyance after August 25, 2012 for $300 fee, so we could find new lawyer. In January 31, 2012 our opposition requested
that we would be taken out of Abeyance by June 15, 2012. Nobody consulted the matter with us and request of our opposition was granted
just in 6 days and on February 6, 2012 we were taken out of Abeyance against our will. On February 12, 2012 I pleaded with AAA to leave
us in Abeyance till August 25, 2012, due to second Claimant, my 86
years old husband was in critical condition in the hospital. I have
not got any reply from AAA till May 4, 2012 that AAA denied our request.
On May 15, 2012 my husband was again readmitted to the hospital
again in critical condition and I pleaded again with AAA to give
us back Abeyance as previously granted. This time Arbitrator granted
us deadline August 25, 2012 back, however he added that on September
10 will be Status conference that establish the final date for Arbitration. In other words, arbitrator did not granted us Abeyance back, as granted, but striped it of our option to prolong
Abeyance by paying $300 fee ! We think, that we are being discriminated
against and Arbitrator is partial to our oposition . Can Arbitrator
take us out of previously granted Abeyance , like that ?
