SECTION 7501

Effect of arbitration agreement

Civil Practice Law & Rules (CVP) CHAPTER 8, ARTICLE 75

§ 7501. Effect of arbitration agreement. A written agreement to
submit any controversy thereafter arising or any existing controversy to
arbitration is enforceable without regard to the justiciable character
of the controversy and confers jurisdiction on the courts of the state
to enforce it and to enter judgment on an award. In determining any
matter arising under this article, the court shall not consider whether
the claim with respect to which arbitration is sought is tenable, or
otherwise pass upon the merits of the dispute.
