Summary
In Conwill v. Arthur Andersen LLP, 12 Misc. 3d 1171(A), 820 N.Y.S.2d 842 (2006), I granted a motion to compel arbitration and stated that, "[t]he role of the court in such instances is to determine: (1) whether the parties agreed to arbitrate; (2) whether the disputes fall within the scope of the arbitration clause; and (3) in the absence of any transcendent federal statutory claims, if some, but not all of the claims are arbitrable, whether to stay the balance of the proceedings pending arbitration."
