marimacha Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Don't mess with this law firm. I thought I had all my ducks in a row and I got rail roaded. Get an attorney if you can. I didn't include arbitration in my affirmative defenses and when I asked for it in court, I was facerolled by the judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having ducks in a row have nothing to do with legal strategy.There are procedures that need to be followed to be effective in any litigation. I don't know how you "asked for it in court", but by filing a properly structured motion, if arbitration is denied, it is an appealable issue.

Rmuze Posted November 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2011 Sent my arbitration election letter, filed my answer, sent my copies, filed motion to compel arbitration and requested dismissal.Now I get a letter that I have a hearing to attend Regarding Why this case should not be dismissed without prejudice so that it can be heard in arbitration per contract.I think that is good? The letter states that the plaintiff can appear via phone.Anyone have advice on how to prepare for a hearing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda7 Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Is it just a letter of notice about the hearing?Or has the plaintiff filed something in court that would need a response from you?Also, have you initiated arbitration or just elected?
