Synthèse Legislator

Généré par l'IA

A party sought to enforce an arbitration clause in a contract against another party who argued that the clause was unconscionable due to unequal bargaining power and oppressive terms, specifically pointing to a lack of mutuality and a one-sided remedy provision. The court found the arbitration provision unconscionable and thus unenforceable because it was both procedurally unconscionable, arising from an adhesion contract presented on a take-it-or-leave-it basis, and substantively unconscionable due to its extreme one-sidedness, which effectively deprived the challenging party of any meaningful remedy.
