What is a motion to enjoin arbitration?

A motion to enjoin arbitration is a type of court action taken to prevent an arbitration from taking place. It is requested by a party involved in the dispute when they are unsatisfied with the proposed terms of arbitration or the arbitrator that has been chosen. In Florida, a motion to enjoin arbitration is heard by the court. The requesting party must prove that they have been harmed or will be harmed by allowing arbitration to take place. If the court finds that the arbitration agreement or the selection of the arbitrator is unjust or inequitable, they will then enjoin or prevent the arbitration from taking place. The motion to enjoin arbitration is meant to guarantee fairness in arbitration proceedings. It is also used to prevent an arbitration process from becoming too costly or complicated for the parties involved. In some cases, the court may grant a motion to enjoin arbitration but not stop the arbitration process outright. Instead, they may order that certain terms or conditions are met before the arbitration can continue. If a motion to enjoin arbitration is unsuccessful, the court will generally deny the motion and allow the arbitration to take place. In that case, the court will typically issue an order barring the parties involved from seeking any other court action concerning the dispute.
