Meg M. Jamison v. SNH AL Crimson…

Summary

The Supreme Court of Alabama reversed an order compelling arbitration because the circuit court ruled on new and material evidence filed with the reply only one day after it was submitted, denying the plaintiffs a meaningful opportunity to respond. The court also held that the evidence originally submitted did not independently constitute substantial evidence of a valid arbitration agreement executed by an authorized representative. The case was remanded for further proceedings.
