FAQ
A petition to compel arbitration must allege the existence of a written agreement to arbitrate a controversy and that a party to the agreement refuses to arbitrate such controversy. CCP § 1281.2 (c) (amended eff 1/1/19).
Draft a Motion to Compel Arbitration. A title, e.g., Motion to Compel Arbitration. The arbitration clause in the agreement. Identities of both parties involved in the lawsuit. The states you both come from. Explain how the court has jurisdiction over the case.
(b) Time to appeal (2) Twenty days after the party filing the notice of appeal serves or is served by a party with a document entitled "Notice of Entry" of the order dismissing or denying a petition to compel arbitration or a filed-endorsed copy of the order, accompanied by proof of service.
The notice of any motion to compel must state the following: 1) when and where the hearing will take place; 2) the grounds for the motion, including the specific discovery sought, the statutory authority, and reasons the response is deficient; and 3) the supporting papers (which must also be filed with the motion).
A party may compel arbitration as long as they have a valid and enforceable written agreement to submit a dispute to arbitration. Arbitration, and specifically the procedures for compelling arbitration, are governed by Code of Civil Procedure section 1280 et seq.
Either Party to a contract in which there is an Arbitration clause can either himself or through an authorised agent may invoke Arbitration so as to refer the dispute to arbitration, as per provisions of the arbitration clause.
It is best practice to move to compel arbitration early in the litigation.
If one party refuses to participate in arbitration, it can complicate the resolution process, particularly if arbitration is a contractual requirement. However, similar to mediation, the non-participating party's refusal does not prevent the other party from seeking alternative avenues for resolution.
The arbitrator's final decision on the case is called the “award.” This is like a judge's or jury's decision in a court case. Once the arbitrator decides that all of the parties' evidence and arguments have been presented, the arbitrator will close the hearings. This means no more evidence or arguments will be allowed.
