OPINION
LAURA CARTER HIGLEY Justice.
Appellants, Rami Amir and Ron Aliezer, filed a plea in abatement and motion to compel arbitration in a suit brought by appellee, International Bank of Commerce (IBC). Amir and Aliezer filed a motion to compel arbitration but explained to the trial court they would not pay their portion of the arbitration filing fee. The trial court refused to compel arbitration, and Amir and Aliezer brought this appeal. In one issue, they argue the trial court abused its discretion by denying their motion to compel arbitration.
We reverse and remand.
