U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 12-3330
U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota - Pierre
[PUBLISHED] [Bye, Author, with Smith and Benton, Circuit Judges]
Civil Case - arbitration. District court's order denying motion to compel
arbitration is affirmed, as Tromley cannot establish the necessary consent
to bind Dakota to arbitration clause because the arbitration provision was
not readily available to Dakota and Dakota did not have a reasonable
opportunity to reject it. In addendum to the agreements, likewise, the
parties did not mutually assent to modify their agreement to include the
arbitration provision.
