SOURCE ONE FINANCIAL CORPORATION’S PETITION FOR
STAY OR DISMISSAL OF ACTION PENDING ARBITRATION
Pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C.A. § 3, Defendant Source One
Financial Corp. ("Source One") hereby petitions the Court to stay or dismiss the present {
action pending arbitration. As discussed in the accompanying Memorandum of Law,
Plaintiffs claims against Source One arise out of a retail installment contract (The
"Contract”) executed by Plaintiff which contains a provision under which the parties agreed
to resolve all disputes via arbitration.
Because the parties agreed to arbitrate all claims, because the arbitration provision
covers the claims raised by Plaintiff and because Congress did not intend for any of those ·
claims to be nonarbitrable, the Court must stay or dismiss the present action until arbitration
has been had in accordance with the terms ofthe Contract.
ORAL ARGUMENT NOT REQUESTED
