Econo-Car International, Inc. v. Antilles Car Rentals, Inc.
Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION OF THE COURT
ADAMS, Circuit Judge
This appeal presents two questions relating to the Federal Arbitration Act. First, we must decide whether the Act grants to the district court for the Virgin Islands the authority to enforce an agreement to arbitrate contractual disputes. Second, if we should decide that the Act has the effect of conferring such authority, we must determine whether the district court for the Virgin Islands has the statutory power, in light of section 4 of the Act, to order that the arbitration between the parties be conducted in New York City as the contract provides.
