Case No. 09-C-01087
South Central Judicial District, Mercer County
Gail Hagerty
Highlight
A denial of a motion to compel arbitration is reviewed under the de novo standard, unless the lower court's decision was based on factual findings, in which case the clearly erroneous standard applies.
Recognizing a strong state and federal public policy favoring the arbitration process, courts resolve any doubts concerning the scope of arbitrable issues in favor of arbitration when there is a broad arbitration clause and no exclusion clause.
Before a party may be compelled to arbitrate, a court must determine whether a valid agreement to arbitrate exists between the parties and whether the specific dispute falls within the substantive scope of that agreement.
