Summary
The court held that many of the nursing-home arbitration agreements were invalid because the signers lacked authority to bind residents, the agreements lacked mutuality, or the documents failed to establish mutual assent. It affirmed denial of arbitration for those agreements, but held that the remaining valid agreements covered the class claims and remanded for arbitration as to those agreements. The court declined to consider an incapacity challenge because it was not preserved below.
