Contract Interpretation and Compelled Arbitration Based on Incorporation by Reference
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAA litigant challenged a court's ruling regarding the scope of an agreement, specifically concerning whether a set of documents constituted a contract that bound the parties to arbitration, arguing that the lower court improperly considered extrinsic evidence. The reviewing court determined that the lower court did not err because the operative contract explicitly incorporated the set of documents by reference, and the plain language of that incorporation, supported by the context of the parties' dealings, sufficiently established a mutual agreement to be bound by the incorporated arbitration clause, thus upholding the decision compelling arbitration.
