	Did You Know?
	Courts enforce agreements to arbitrate. When people sign an agreement providing for arbitration, one side cannot decide later on that it would rather litigate. Unless both parties agree that they do not want to arbitrate, a court will enforce the arbitration agreement by compelling the unwilling party to arbitrate and precluding the party from continuing court litigation.
