GENERAL STEEL CORP.   V. COLLINS
ADR:  Arbitration Clause not enforceable
2005-CA-001647
PUBLISHED
AFFIRMING; COMBS
DATE RENDERED: 6/23/2006

The arbitration clause contained in the offer was clearly and deliberately rejected by marking it out in its entirety.   By executing the general terms of the contract, Collins did not waive his right to reject the specific arbitration clause proposed by General Steel.  Arbitration clause was thus not enforceable.
