District Court of Appeal of Florida


Friendly Homes of the S. Inc. v. Fontice, 2D05-3672

In a dispute between buyers of a home and a builder involving allegations that the house was poorly constructed and suffered from defects, a nonfinal order finding that defendant was not entitled to arbitration is reversed where lower court erred in focusing on the validity of an "Arbitration Document Disclosure" as opposed to the parties' joint stipulation for arbitration.
