In the Matter of the Application of Cheney Brothers, for an Order Directing Joroco Dresses, Inc., to Proceed with an Arbitration and to Nominate One of the Board of Arbitration
Opinion of the Court
Text extracted by OCR from a scanned original; check the original for exact wording.
Per Curiam.
The order should be reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, and the motion to compel arbitration *653 denied, with ten dollars costs, on the ground that the question as to whether or not the contract was fraudulently induced raises an issue of fact which must be tried before the right to arbitration under the contract may be enforced. If the contract was voided by fraud, the arbitration provision therein falls.
Present — Clarke, P. J., Dowling, Merrell, McAvoy and Martin, JJ.; Merrell and Martin, JJ., dissent.
Order reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, and motion denied, with ten dollars costs.
