Calvitti Pools & Spas v. Patton – Arbitration Award Confirmed, $134,044 Motion to Transfer Denied

The Delaware Court of Chancery confirmed a $134,044 arbitration award in favor of Calvitti Pools & Spas, Inc. against defendants Stephanie and Robert Patton, arising from a swimming pool construction contract dispute. The court denied defendants' motion to transfer the case to the Court of Common Pleas, rejecting their argument that the Delaware Uniform Arbitration Act vests that court with exclusive jurisdiction over arbitration claims involving consumer credit contracts. The court also granted plaintiff's motion for judgment on the pleadings, confirming enforcement of the arbitration agreement.
