1Opinion of the Court
Blackburn, Presiding Judge.
In this action involving a “payday” loan contract, Demetris Crawford appeals from the trial court’s grant of Great American Cash Advance, Inc.’s (GACA) motion to compel arbitration of her counterclaim, arguing that the trial court erred in (1) finding that the arbitration clause was enforceable, (2) finding that the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) governed this matter, and (3) compelling arbitration of an unconscionable contract. Crawford also argues (4) that the doctrine of res judicata precludes arbitration of this matter. For the reasons set forth below, we affirm.
