Adjudication is the next level of problem solving when parties are not satisfied with an arbitrator's result. In adjudication, a lawyer appointed by the government will solve the problem. There are three tiers of adjudication bodies: labour courts consisting of retired high court judges or district judges; industrial tribunals formed by central/state governments and headed by a retired high court judge; and national tribunals formed only by the central government and headed by a retired Supreme Court or high court judge.
