The signature of the defendant&#8217;s representative showed defendant&#8217;s acceptance of the arbitration agreement&#8217;s provisions. If a dispute is subject to arbitration, but the plaintiff files an action in circuit court, the action is not dismissed, the remedy is a stay of the action pending arbitration. Cost awarding statutes do not apply to a stayed action because there is no prevailing party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/previews.123rf.com\/images\/outchill\/outchill1711\/outchill171102727\/89037207-arbitration-text-written-on-green-lacey-border-round-vintage-textured-badge-stamp-.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"176\" height=\"148\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to speak to an attorney about alternative\ndispute resolution or being sued, call our law office at 816-524-4949 or visit\nour website at Hoorfarlaw.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Hal Miller v.
