Krause v. Loeb & Loeb
Appellants were sued, along with several other defendants, by plaintiffs Bernelle Krause and the Kalman Krause Family Limited Partnership. Appellants moved to compel arbitration pursuant to a contractual arbitration agreement to which they and plaintiffs are parties, but to which the remaining defendants are not. The trial court denied the petition, concluding that under Code of Civil Procedure section 1281.2, subdivision (c), the litigation arises out of a series of related transactions and there is a possibility of conflicting rulings on issues held in common by appellants, who would be subject to the arbitration, and the remaining defendants, who would not. Court find no abuse of discretion, and affirm.
