It appears to the Court that the requirements of the Federal Arbitration Act for a stay of this action pursuant to 9 U.S.C. § 3 have been satisfied. Therefore, the Motion to Stay is ALLOWED, and this action shall be stayed pending the completion of binding arbitration between Plaintiff and Defendant Caddell Construction Co., Inc.
