United States First Circuit

A borrower's assertion of the right to rescind a loan transaction subject to the Truth in Lending Act (TILA), 15 U.S.C. 1601 et seq., does not undo the borrower's obligation to take the rescission claim to arbitration as required by a provision in the parties' loan agreement.
