ARBITRATION-BUSINESS DISPUTE-VOTING DEADLOCK RESOLUTION

Bennett v. Forker, Pa. No. 21-1006 (C.P. Lycoming April 5, 2022) (Linhardt, J.)  This opinion by Judge Linhardt finds that the dispute between the parties falls under the operating agreement arbitration provision and therefore must be arbitrated.  The question has to do with a disagreement between the parties as to how to run the business, however.  It was not specifically a voting deadlock, but the court found it fell within that type of dispute.  It is really a bit of a stretch.
