Mississippi Supreme Court

Benard Hubbard, II v. Nexion Health at Clinton, Inc. d/b/a Woodlands Rehabilitation and HealthCare Center, Minor Med…

May 28, 2026

Summary

The court held that the record did not establish that Hubbard II had authority to bind his father to the stand-alone arbitration agreement. Because the defendants presented no evidence supporting an agency relationship and failed to obtain a ruling on their discovery request, the orders compelling arbitration were reversed and the case was remanded. No separate opinions were filed.
