Mississippi Supreme Court
Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc. v. Brownlow, 874 So. 2d 972 (Miss. 2004)
2004 Miss. LEXIS 676; 2004 WL 1277019
Carlson, Cobb, Diaz, Dickinson, Easley, Graves, Randolph, Smith, Waller
Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc. v. Brownlow
Opinion of the Court
¶ 1. For the reasons stated in Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc. v. Battle, 873 So.2d 79 (Miss. 2004), we affirm the trial court’s grant of partial summary judgment and declaratory judgment finding that the plaintiffs’ claims are not subject to arbitration. In Battle, we determined that there was not a valid, binding arbitration agreement contained in the pre-paid legal expense agreement. We find that an average citizen would not realize that he or she is giving up his or her right to a trial by jury under the broad, general language
¶ 2. AFFIRMED AND REMANDED.
