JOHNSON, Circuit Judge:
Parsons-Gilbane appeals from an order of the district court staying pending arbitration proceedings. On appeal, Parsons-Gilbane asserts that the district court erroneously concluded that a dispute with Mar-Len of Louisiana, Inc. (Mar-Len) regarding the validity of certain contract modifications is beyond the scope of an arbitration agreement between the parties. This Court finds that the dispute is subject to the party’s arbitration agreement. The order of the district court is vacated and remanded.
