United States Third Circuit

In plaintiff's personal injury action against his employer, denial of motion to compel arbitration on the ground that the relevant arbitration agreement is unconscionable under Virgin Islands law is vacated where, as here, an arbitration provision requires only one side to submit its claims to arbitration, but does not alter or limit the rights and remedies available to that party in the arbitral forum, it cannot be said that the parties' agreement is substantively unconscionable.
