Activate Clean Energy, LLC v. DMX Engineering, LLC

Here, the scope of the Arbitration Agreement is very broad and encompasses the claims asserted by Plaintiff against Defendant. In covering “all disputes, claims or disagreements arising from or relating to this Agreement, the employment relationship between the parties or the establishment or termination of the employment relationship that are not resolved via mutual agreement,” the Agreement covers Plaintiff’s claims against Defendant. (Fajardo Dec., ¶¶ 6-7 and Ex. E; Treasure Dec., at ¶ 4 and Ex. C.)

Plaintiff did not oppose the motion and thus provides no basis to deny the motion to compel arbitration.

Accordingly, the Motion to Compel Arbitration is granted, and the action stayed, pending the completion of arbitration. (Code Civ. Proc. § 1281.4.)

An ADR Review Hearing is set for 9:00 a.m. on September 22, 2026, in Department N16.

Defendant shall give notice of this ruling.
